Hi, I have a 2008 TD4 GS that has developed a noise. It's only done 75,000 miles.

It's a mooooo that starts at around 40mph - any gear - and increases slightly in frequency and volume as we accelerate.

My local MoT station kindly took it for a run and put it on the ramps; they said there's no play in any of the wheel bearings and they suspect the rear diff bearing, but before I go ahead with the repair (we need to sell soon) I'd like to get a second opinion from a knowledgeable person.

I live in Tetbury in Gloucestershire; is there any member nearby who would be willing to have a listen? Or, alternatively, is there a trustworthy LR specialist nearby? (nearby is a relative term, I can travel).

I had a look at the diff oil last week; it was full, and crystal clear.

Many thanks, Andy

Thanks!

It could just as equally be the front PTU. Get yourself up to Bewdley and get it diagnosed right first time.

Thanks, all
