Okay so recently after getting new wheels/ coilovers/ rear links and an alignment I started to hear a noise coming from the rear of the car. It's hard to describe the noise but at first I was certain the tires where rubbing, but after rolling the fenders a bit more there's plenty of clearance but the noise is still there.
I can hear the noise only under acceleration in 2nd gear or higher( maybe it's just hard to hear in 1st) and also when I'm taking turns while in gear(with enough throttle to keep the speed or accel.) The noise seems to be coming from the passenger rear but I could be wrong. Any ideas to what could be causing this? Axel, diff, wheel bearing?


*Noise seems like its getting worse. It also isn't a constant noise, it's kind of like a wobble and it gets faster the faster I go. I can also feel vibration in the car through the floor and gas pedal.

This is my DD so any good opinions or advice would be awesome, I can't have it break on me and would like to solve it asap.

 

check all bolts and nuts on what you installed.
diff bushings could be bad.
bad hub.
bad axle boots.
bad diff.
pretty much a trial and error thing.
GL finding it

 

Any way I can test those things to tell if they are bad or not?

 

for bad bushings and boots all you can do is look and see if they are torn or have excesive play in the suspension arms.. for the hub jack up the car and place your hands at the 12 and 6 oclock posistions on the tire rocking the tire front to back and feeling for excesive play.. if you have play there then it means you have a bad wheel bearing

 

thanks for the info.

 

sounds like a hub bearing

 

Wouldn't that noise be constant? Not only under acceleration? Also to describe the noise better its kind of like a dull or muffled knocking.

 

from a bad hub? no only when the car is acceleration.
