Greetings everyone-
I got my 914 up and running, it makes a noise after rolling faster than 10 mph. I was told it was old tires prior to buying it. After putting new tires on yesterday, it still makes the same noise. Coasting w/ trans in neutral, engine near idle, still makes the noise, I'm guessing it rear wheel bearings? or alignmnent? Sounds like (at least I hear it) its coming from the reat of the car. Anybody experience this? let me know. thanks, (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Ed |

My guess is wheel bearings. Lifting a wheel and rotating it may illuminate the bad bearing. Turning a wheel with your hands when lifted should result in smooth rotation without any rolling noise, looseness, or rolling vibration. Any of the above could point to a bad wheel bearing. I have one on my car that sings in left hand turns only.
