| Front Hum / vibration - road speed related |
|
For a while the Disco has had a vibration / hum that increases with road speed but goes quiet when turning left at speed. As I've had to do the lower arms and the passenger front tyre felt slightly castellated onto outer edge I thought this was the issue however after another new tyre it has made no difference and there is also no difference in sound level in heavy rain so appears to be mechanical. I'm guessing (hoping) that this is most likely the LHS front wheel bearing. Any thoughts or similar experience?
Thanks, Paul Discovery 4 HSE 2014 (Current)

Yep, 4 wheel alignment was carried out. The noise was present before the change but has got worse. It’s only just noticeable at lower speeds but is intrusive from 50mph upwards. Discovery 4 HSE 2014 (Current)

Turns out the problem was a knackered wheel bearing. Both fronts changed after lots of swearing to get the sized one out but all is now wonderfully quiet 😀😀😀😀 Discovery 4 HSE 2014 (Current)
