    It's all about the Tyres!

    Just fitted Kumho kh31's and must say the road noise is amazingly quiet but i did have very noisey! winter tyres on previously, done 200 miles in them so far so good in terms of noise, apparently a few more miles will see them at there best

    Huming noise at 70

    I had full discs and pads changed about 3k ago, it is like a mechanical huming if that makes sense, a bit more than wheel balancing i think :(

    Huming noise at 70

    As ***le says i get a loud huming noise coming from the front of the car only at 70mph (cant quite pin point which side) it is more audible decelerating at bang on 70mph, my first thoughts could be wheel bearing as the wheel shakes a bit too
