Rumble while driving

[vr4ssz]

Hey guys

I got my pfl Legnum on the road after owning it for a year and previous owner hadn't driven it for at least 4, anyway.

There is a rumbling noise and it gets louder the faster u go, would this be a wheel bearing or maybe tire noise?

Anyway for me to check?

That's pretty vague. Last time I heard rumbling in my car, it was my own stomach telling me to eat something.
Can you tell where the noise is coming from?

That I haven't found out yet, sounds likes its from the back and gets louder the faster you go, its more of a grumling/rumbling noise.

Not grinding.

Could be bearing I had something similar abs it wad the ps rear bearing or it could be tires have you checked the tire pressure Ave made sure it's not down?

I will check tire pressure on way home from work, hopefully it turns out just to be road noise.

Could be brake pads rubbing on the disks or hand brake shoes rubbing.
Do a few hard braking manouvers to clean up the brakes.
Also pull the handbrake lever lightly while driving and see if the noise changes.

I recently played around with the handbrake as I had to take it all off when I changed the rear knuckle.

Front passenger side wheel, has play back and forward, but not and down....

Would it be safe to say that bearing is stuffed?
