Question RE; Noise

for the last few weeks i am getting a steady low tone growl while moving.

we have new winter tires on, the front and rear axles recently had their fluids changed, all fluids checkout OK.

was wondering what it might be.......

My bet is the new tires. When I put new rubber on my ZR2 I got a hum from them when driving down the road.

does the noise increase with speed? If so, it's probably your new tires like the guy above me said.

Does it get worse when you turn in any particular direction? Where is the noise coming from; front/rear, left/right? Details!!

Could you be more descriptive? You are here asking for help and yet your description of the problem is severely lacking... Try answering each question asked with clear, concise answers.

Default RE' Noise

as the vehicle starts to move there is a growl or moaning sound.

the sound stays the same all the way up the rpm range.

it is a low tone of a growl or moan.

brakes acting normal, steering is normal and all fluids are OK.

hope this info is OK.
