Hey all! First post on here.

Firstly, everyone thats contributed to this stagea section has done an outstanding job! I had a few other questions that we're quickly answered by having a search.

My main issue and question is about the noise that seems to be coming mainly during rolling deceleration. Under acceleration he car moves well and feels good, though it does sound as if thermo fans/vacume or somthing similar are making a large amount of noise. Then once im off the throttle and the tacho shows the rpm drop, there no deviation in the noise untill I begin braking.

I am in no way a mechanically savey person so all I can assume is its somthing rubbing, dragging and most likely expensive but I dont know where to start.

Secondly, where and who are the best to deal with m35 alts in adelaide?

Any ideas and or help will be greatly appreciated!

I'm probably completely wrong but my first thoughts are front wheel bearings.

Drove in to work this morning and after reading afew threads about front bearings starting to go payed more atention to load and cornering.

Not a noise, nothing under about 40kmh regrdless of incline, cornering or acceleration. Few creaks here and there but i assume there just worn bushs and the like.

I did however notice that the tyers (which are new with the purchase) are "Achilles", not a brand ive herd of. What are the chances there a crappy cheap tyre making a butt load of noise? Anybody else ran or running these?

Clutching at (cheaper) straws!

Thanks Daleo, thats what im wantting to hear!

Just swung it past the mechanic who told me that the tread pattern is super aggresive and that i could go "f**king 4wding with em" haha.

Ill keep rolling around on them and see how they fair, if the noise increases ill change fronts to rear and see if the same noise follows.

Failing that i guess ill keep afew hundred spare for a possible bearing replacment.

Cheers guys.

Yeah i spose that is true Scott, though the bank balance is stretched pretty hard after the purchase.

Ill hit up the mate i purchased it from and swap back the R43 stockies an have a gander at the sound. They were on there for the test drive and i dont recall hearing the racket i do now!

    • yeah I've never understood that either.... And to answer an earlier question, I write the date on open bottles and throw them if more than 12 months old (which they almost always are, because I don't need to bleed them unless I'm changing lines/calipers etc in between)
    • Nah, the one that hit the boot was a big steel locker, around 6 foot height, 4 foot wide and 2 foot deep, empty it weighs about 15kg and had about that amount of stuff in it The photo didn't give a good representation of the actual damage, the large ding on the passenger side was about a inch deep, the one on the driver was about 1/2 inch deep, right on the curve, where the inner boot frame doesn't let you get behind it with a dolly Basically the same issue with getting behind the damage on the centre of the boot We could have filled it all with bog, but my OCD would be triggered every time I looked at it, knowing what hides beneath  As for the locker, I did get the shits with it and put it in the scap metal bin, but, I pulled it out and it is now sitting in the garage at home full of car servicing stuff, cleaning gear and random tools, it's going to pay for it's indiscretions
    • Whilst I typically don't cheap out on things, if I can save some money, like $1000, on a clean straight panel, that gives me $1000 to spend on other stuff, basically free money really 🤔 🤣
    • Is the toolbox that damaged the boot seal the same item that fell on the car during the storm a while back?
    • Who are you to deny yourself? I’ve said this many times to myself and apart from getting what I really want, I go quiet for a while whilst working out what I just did to my savings and how will I afford what it cost, then, next payday…
