Strange Sound Coming From Front Of Car
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,
