Title: rumble noise when deccelerating any ideas
Post by: mk5craig on March 29, 2012, 10:02:56 pm

Have a noise coming from the front of the car, when im going along accelerating and then take my foot of the pedal i get a rumble noise, it doesnt change if i brake, but as soon as i accelerate again it stops,
Was thinking wheel balancing?
tyres?
thanks and hope that makes sense  :smiley:

If changing the wheels has made a difference thenit could be balancing, i think im going to get balanced tomorrow, if you car was ok before try swapping the wheels around
thanks craig

I think it could be tyres as on the way to Work this morning it did it on some roads and not on others, going to get some prices for some tyres
Thanks craig
