Okay I have a funny sound coming from the drivers side rear. It only happens when it is over 80 Degrees ambiant outside. Never when cold. It usually comes on after about 30 MPH and goes away suddenly. Sometimes its really loud sometimes quiet.
I made a recording today and though someone might know if I have a problem or just something simple. 1973 914 2.0 D-Jet - Stock as she came from the factory. Crazy 914 sound MP3 - 4MB In the audio I start recording when I am doing 40MPH. I do that a while, get to red light. It goes away then I go back to 40MPH and it does not come back, then it just comes back when I am doing about 25. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Thanks in advance, |

go pull the caliper off and see if the bearing is funky...or if something falls out when you remove the caliper.
with race tires I got rocks all over the place, including in the calipers. If nothing else, you can then test the bearing with no resistance. rich |
