Hum Hum 64mph-68mph

Post by maxmataz » Sun Aug 14, 2011 5:01 pm

I have noticed a hum hum (or her her) noise between 63mph & 68mph any clues to what this may be. It occurs repeatedly probably every 1/2sec or if you just say her, her, one after the other.

Hi,
It sounds like it could be a wind related problem,worth going round your van and checking windows/doors/deflectors and your aft if you have one.

Cheers.

Tyre noise.

Mines started doing it since the rears have hit the wear limit blocks.

It is not wind related but did suspect the rear tyres or even the spare tyre :?: as I have just replaced the space saver with a proper tyre. The noise does come from my rear :oops:
