Roll Squeak. Roll Squeak.
Hi folks,
Our 2004 JCW has been making an annoying sound that I only hear while rolling slowly (especially in parking lots with other cars that echo the sound). It sounds like a tire rubbing against a shock or something. Kind of a wet rubbery squeak or moan mixed with a bit of grinding. Clutch in or out doesn't matter. It either disappears as we go faster or other sounds get so loud I can't hear it any more. I first thought it was brake rotor/disk related, but I've jacked up all four sides and can't replicate the noise when I spin the wheels. So it's only when there's load on the suspension, I guess. Could it be the runflats? Stock tires, second set. Probably about 20K on them. PS: This car has already gone through a wheel bearing. I can't remember which one, but I'm hoping it's not that or a CV joint. I figured I'd hear something, if it was, when I spun the wheels while it was jacked up. Thanks for any thoughts! |
ITs an 04 we're at the end of 06 I think its time to lobe the rear sway bar :nod: Little grease on the two mounts should do the trick.

If you were in a damp enclosed parking garage with cold tires, I'd say it was probably just talking tires. Bit of grinding? I don't know. But I will say this; stop buying runflats & get some decent tires.
