Hi all just wondering if someone could help!
After years of saving I bought my dream car only 2 weeks ago, it's a 2006 rrs 2.7hse
When I bought it I new it needed front wheel bearings as they were a little noisy so a friend replaced them for me, now the wheel bearing noise has gon I can hear another noise, the only way I can describe it is like your constantly driving over the shevrons on the road which as you speed up the noise gets faster and as you slow down it gets slower.
If anyone can help I would be so grateful
Many thanks
Steve

Anti-roll bar D Bushes or drop links. Not a big job but sounds like what it is.

Steveo, do the revs 'bounce' whilst it is doing it?

Another member on here recently had the same 'cattle grid' effect as he called it. It needed a replacement Torque Converter. Did you get it from a dealer or private sale? Was it evident on the test drive?

It's possible that a gearbox reset and Transfer box recalibration may help, although I suspect that it would also come back quite quickly if it is the TC.
I'm not far from you if you need faults read or any updates to the new toy once you've ironed out this problem. (In fact I also help run Meole Brace Explorer Scouts so am over there reasonably regularly)  Bodsys Brake Bible

Something to think about! It could be tyres? I have read on here that if you run on 20" wheels and tyres and the car has stood of some time that they get flat spots. Maybe take it out for a long drive to warm the tyres up and see if it gets better!
Hope it's nothing to clever and a simple fixs.

Thanks Chris the guy I bought it off used it every other day so I don't think its been standing, I really hope it's nothing to drastic, could do without a big bill at this time of year :/

Hey thanks for your response
No the revs stay as normal and tbh I didn't notice it during the test drive or driving it home from Cardiff also drove to Nottingham and back and didn't notice it, it's only the last few days it's come to my attention oh and it was a private sale so no returns :/

If your not to far away or your over here soon I could pop over to you if that's ok then you could here it yourself and you could tell me if I need any updates

I'm going to Shukers late this afternoon Will be quite late, but before 5.30 (they close at 5.30) to pick up a part if you wanted to meet up there or maybe Tesco car park as I'm sure LR wont want me in their customer car park LOL.

There's a few updates that can be done to your car, follow the link in my sig for some of them

I'll drop you a PM with my mobile on.

cheers
