What front end noise could this be?

[Euro]

It started on the way to work this morning, I can't seem to think what exactly it could be...but above 35mph I get this noise and slight vibration that literally sounds like I'm running no exhaust, it really sounds like Rich17's car... But I only hear it above that mph. And above that mph the sound goes with the revs of the engine? At first I thought maybe I blew a tire since these tires are about to disintegrate anyway, but it's not it.

I don't hear anything while turning either direction, so I'm not sure what it may be. I couldn't crawl underneath since it's pouring down rain and I'm in a shirt and tie

My DP hits my swaybar after I put it in, could that have something to do with it? I barely heard it anyway, could the swaybar have broken? Or an axle?

Thanks for any input guys

more than likely motor mount sunk and is making the dp hit more than it did before.

if you get a chance look for an oily substance below the pass side lower motor mount

I'll take a look either on my lunch or after work. Sounds like a great time! Thanks James

maybe the DP is sending vibration through the swaybar into the floor of the car? could be..

It does that already but very slight. Idk, Rich and I were out for a good 20-30 minutes and couldn't replicate the noise. Go figure

Oh well!

i have a stupid ass question but are the tires in good shape?

they're shot. But its not rotaional.

I honestly belive he picked up a plastic bag on the large hanger hooks and it was flapping more and more with speed. Thats why it didnt sound like anything until 35mph

Get under there and let us know! Happened to me twice since I dropped the damn thing.

I had a weird noise like that and my tunnel had to be enlarged

Yeeeaaaah. I bought the car in May with the car desperately needing tires, and let's just say I haven't checked that off the list yet


But like Rich said I think that's very possible. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary when we put it on the ramps either. So, ah well.
