Got a slight rumbling noise which has appeared when driving at low speed (or maybe I can only hear it at low speed). It sounds as if its coming from the n/s/f area of the car. Not sure if this is a wheel bearing or something else. Doesnt quieten when turning a corner which makes me think this could be something else. Going to get it booked into BMW when I get chance to see what it could be.

Any thoughts?

thanks mate....thinking it could be the bearing too. Car done 33k and I've never tracked it - although not saying a previous owner hasnt.

I hear it as I'm at low speed driving through the estate back home. Dont notice it when at higher speeds i.e normal road driving 30/40 mph and on the motorway.

Having some new tyres fitted on saturday, although rears - if I cant get this to BeeEm before then I'll ask them to have a look.

Thanks for the reply mate.
