Tyres maybe? I had similar with my tyres a few weeks ago, changed them and noise is gone. When the old tyres were removed, Found a bulge on the inside. Check pressures and tread for uneven wear. Hopefully a cheap and cheerful fix. Either that or centre prop bearing wearing out, quite common on the 4.4 TDV8. |

Hiya mike that's ok, where in Brum are you? There's a few Indies in the Midlands that would help diagnose the centre prop bearing. I'm sure if you raise the suspension and leave a door open, crawl underneath and see if you have play in the bearing. But like you say the noise disappears after a bit of driving, the tyres would have warmed up and noise then goes. Saab 9-5's were notorious for road noise when wearing down and pressures, if you got cheap Chinese tyres on or budget, that could be the culprit. |
