the front tyres are more worn than the rears, but would this wind up cause a rotating rattle/knock so bad you can feel the wheel 'choking'?

Hi andrew, Yes, I meant locking the CD. With the wheel locking up I mean.....that the wheel/axle (I believe it only was the drivers side one) had trouble turning and felt like the brakes were being applied off and on

We've had quite a bit of snow overnight so I engaged the 50/50 4wd this morning. The rattling/knocking became somewhat worse on accelerating but even more so when cornering. When turning left on full lock to park the car, the wheels almost locked up :o I'm puzzled :?

I suspect a CV joint. Will investigate this when the snow is gone. Not sure when that is, because there is loads more coming tonight :?

I seriously doubt it has anything to do with the a/c. In that case it would also be audible at revving the engine at stand still. I do see some sense in Niki's post, but I have aftermarket 18" wheels with firmly locked hub caps. The mrs took the LC out today and reported that the only time she...

it does it without, I haven't tried it with a/con

agreed. Big brother is watching too much as it is..and other low lifes...If I would put inmy exact coordinates I'd have the same. Loch Lomond will do

if I click you now...you seem to be located corrrectly

aye. I turn out to be in Florida lol Nice turn, but Scotland is a wee bit more wet..lol

I'm pretty sure it's nothing resonating as I can almost feel the rattle. I def comes from the front. I say it's at the right front, but the mrs (who can hear a mouse squeek from 10 miles) swears it's more centre front

It's a metal sort of rattle. when I rev the engine up at stand still it's all very smooth. Exhaust and egine mounts seem not an otion as it's a rather 'quick' rattle :?

Thanks for that Dave. It's an auto It's actually worse on high revs, but only when accelerating hard. When I acc. normal there is no noise

:text-offtopic: Hi Niki, Glasgow not that far from me. I'm 10 miles north of Balloch :) I might be able to give you a hand

I've recently updated the sound system and have driven without a stereo a few days :shock: It was then when I noticed a kind of rattling noise when accelerating and cornering. More noticeable on hard acc. not really there when normal acc. and not there at any steady speed. It seems to be...
