#1: rear axle & the metal on metal noise Author: Project2062014, Location: CornwallPosted: Sun Jun 07, 2015 3:49 pm ---- What parts makes that noise when the axles gone ?
It's the most annoying sound jack the car up and Ting !
Is there a bar on the inside of the beam ??
#2: Re: rear axle & the metal on metal noise Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Mon Jun 08, 2015 12:48 am ---- Will probably be the anti roll bar. It doesn't mean the axle bearings are worn.
#3: Re: rear axle & the metal on metal noise Author: Project2062014, Location: CornwallPosted: Mon Jun 08, 2015 3:41 pm ---- So where is the anti roll bar & how easy is it to replace ?
Ive received a recon axle fresh from imaxle under warranty many thanks to Martin .. Only good words I have for him ..
I hope this axle isn't going to be too low again also the tracking/ toe I hope is correct off the rear arms ...
The axle stubs ? That hold the hub ..on the old axle was completely out of line giving me - toe ....
will fit It this weekend :):) it looks way too low sitting here looking at it . Sway bars may stay off less weight any how

#5: Re: rear axle & the metal on metal noise Author: Project2062014, Location: CornwallPosted: Mon Jun 08, 2015 4:01 pm ---- All is tight and I've got play in the rear arm .
Depends on what wheel is lifted to what side the noise comes from .
#6: Re: rear axle & the metal on metal noise Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Mon Jun 08, 2015 4:13 pm ---- Sway bars may stay off yet you don't know where the ARB is?

Read the question . I'm still Tring to get the info needed .
The ain't roll goes thou the axle it's bolted either side . End plates.
My question is what's causing the ting noise ?
Please explain how a bar through a beam knocks badly when worn ?
#8: Re: rear axle & the metal on metal noise Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Tue Jun 09, 2015 2:29 am ---- Well to leave the 'sway ' bars off where would they be left off from?

Mugging me off Edward !
Left off the rear axle from the allot centre bracket to the rear arm..
Now can you explain how the noise ??? Or don't you know because it seems your avoiding my question like always .
What causes the ting and why ? Cheers

#11: Re: rear axle & the metal on metal noise Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Tue Jun 09, 2015 11:32 am ---- The end plates are either loose or they need knocking on a couple more mm.
#12: Re: rear axle & the metal on metal noise Author: Project2062014, Location: CornwallPosted: Tue Jun 09, 2015 11:46 am ---- I've no play I've got a ting noise .
When one wheel lifts up it goes ting in the centre of the beam .. Had same problem on silver gti .. (With excessive play in the arm) ..
The anti roll is tight as can be .
#13: Re: rear axle & the metal on metal noise Author: Steve206, Location: UKPosted: Tue Jun 09, 2015 1:12 pm ---- You said you've got play in rear arm a few posts back?
If you've got a new axle I don't see the problem.
#14: Re: rear axle & the metal on metal noise Author: Project2062014, Location: CornwallPosted: Wed Jun 10, 2015 2:46 pm ---- I would like to understand the issue and how the noise is created .
#15: Re: rear axle & the metal on metal noise Author: owlinbrum, Posted: Thu May 24, 2018 9:11 pm ---- So would I! Definitely have the same thing or ting or clink or clang!
Is it really a case of banging the ends on harder or should a replacement ARB be sought, perhaps with new end plates?
Both the bolts on mine steered off. One side, then 2 or 3 months later the other. Replaced each shortly after they went. Now the noise after replacing both bolts with new. I also noticed the loud twang noise when jacking up as well.
Don’t mean to hijack a thread, but I’ve done A LOT of reading and this is another good source. I’ve just not found a definitive answer and also it seems difficult to find a replacement ARB, rather than though whole rear assembly.
Any assistance greatly appreciated. Let me know if a new thread is preferred.
