Martin959 Posted June 16, 2015 Posted June 16, 2015 Hiya everybody! Sorry I dont come here too often since I moved :( I have a problem with my scooby and its that sometimes when I switch gears (usually downshifts) the scooby makes some weird noises coming from the back, I changed the clutch because i tough it was that... but nope... apparently the noises are coming from the back and specially when I do a downshift or the rear wheels have to traction (e.g. uphills)(a "cla cla cla..." sounds appear from the back... and disappear when I get some speed...) I have been reading in some other forums that usually is because of the rear axe wheel bearings... what do you think guys? I doubt is the rear differential, its something that its quite hard to break, and i usually drive my scooby like a granny... xD Thanks!!!!!! :D
savage bulldogs Posted June 19, 2015 Posted June 19, 2015 Do you know when it last had a rear different oil change and have you checked the rear different oil levels lately ? I think it's quite unusual for both rear bearings to go at once so you'd normally get a "humming" noise when cornering (when the worn side is under load) try Jacking the back up and check for any top to bottom and side to side play in the rear wheels and give your rear tyres a visual check while it's in the air Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk 2

Yeah, might be, this "cla cla cla cla...." does it usually uphill... and when I do a downshift it does weird noises coming from the back, but doesnt sound like the rear differential itself, sounds more to the exteriors of the car... I guess its the bearings because the suspension doesnt change when I shift gears... Also I heard a noise like the machine that the butchers use when cutting meat.. but that might be the brakes i guess :P
savage bulldogs Posted June 19, 2015 Posted June 19, 2015 Is the car a sti if not did you fit a matching rear diff ? Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

Gambit Posted June 20, 2015 Posted June 20, 2015 When driving just pull the handbrake up a bit see what it does not to skid it :D might get a loud clunk then see if it does it again after :) 1
Martin959 Posted June 20, 2015 Author Posted June 20, 2015 I will do that then :P now I remember that in the MOT they say something about some rubber things that had to be changed... Im going to look at it later... :P
Martin959 Posted June 20, 2015 Author Posted June 20, 2015 Yeah, they say that the "Anti-roll bar kinkage rubber bush" are deteriorated, all 4 of them, front and rear ones... but i guess that cant be the noise... since its not related when I do a downshift or on uphills...
Martin959 Posted June 20, 2015 Author Posted June 20, 2015 Droplinks or anti roll bar bushes :) So, are the freakin anti roll bat bushes? xD
Gambit Posted June 20, 2015 Posted June 20, 2015 It could be more prominent knock so it is possible they're giving you the issues :D might have even deteriorated one that bad it's come out :) 1
Martin959 Posted June 20, 2015 Author Posted June 20, 2015 I guess if it comes out, could be bad... right? xD 1
Gambit Posted June 20, 2015 Posted June 20, 2015 No not really be an MOT fail and would make it sound awful and make the !Removed! end sway about... Yeah wouldn't be good :D 1
Martin959 Posted June 20, 2015 Author Posted June 20, 2015 Nicee, still I think im going to change the rear bearings since its also not that expensive and may explain the "clan clan clan clan..." (until it does traction...xD) 1
Gambit Posted June 20, 2015 Posted June 20, 2015 Worth doing it's parts that need changing so wouldn't do any harm either :) 1
Scoobyghost Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 Quite an interesting gif battle going on here [emoji38] [emoji2] 3
Gambit Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 My facebook wall seem's to end the same way when Martin post's lmao 1
savage bulldogs Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 Keep it up fellas yer gifs are making me grin 2
Martin959 Posted June 26, 2015 Author Posted June 26, 2015 K, just ordered a couple of these "http://www.ebay.com/itm/180895091035?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT" just hope these will fix the noises that the rear wheels make when im turning and have to do traction at "lower speeds" :)
