I've started to notice a strange sound coming from the front of the car when driving. Sounds like a 'whooping' sound. Goes like whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop. (Sorry if I sound a bit crazy but that's how it sounds lol).

I have checked all the wheel and they are secure.

Is this something to do with rack rods or ball joints? I remember my girlfriend having a similar thing on her clio.

 

Check there is nothing stuck in your tyre. Then jack it up and grab the wheel in the 12 and 6 oclock position and check for bearing faliure. Check the drive shaft boots are secure and drive in a circle on full lock and listen for a duff CV joint. Could be a number of things,

 

is the car lowerd? prob driverside drive shaft if it is as it has bearoing on the shaft, or your tyres could have gone mis shaped. i.e flat spots all other

 

No it's not lowered, is standard with standard wheels.

 

Only way is to get your hands dirty and have a look. That type of sound could be anything.
