Help please!! Disco 3 - Drone, vibration and fluid-leak...
Click image to enlarge
Hi Folks,
Hope someone might be able to advise....
Driving our MY08 D3 today on the motorway. Started to notice a droning noise (not the Mrs) and very light vibration felt through the footwell which was most prominent on dead-ahead but disappeared when applying right-hand lock. Hoped it might just be a wheel-bearing starting to go. Also think I noticed a loss of push-back on the brake pedal with it going long until I pumped it...when it seemed to 're-pressure' for a brief period. Got home and a trail of fluid followed us up to our parking spot. Looked underneath and multiple drips from casing situated just behind front-left wheel.
Any of you good folk have an opinion??
Please & Thanks.

Brake pipe ? Check the fluid level.

Thanks Pete!
Yes I did wonder if the pedal going soft might be a brake-line so will check levels tomorrow. Would that contribute towards the droning noise you think??
