And I'm happy with them - they fit well and look smart.

How is the logo part on them? Looks like an iron on patch?

Re: Strange noise.... Help!

Right. In my experience (which I'll admit is both flawed and limited), if it's wheel bearings the noise changes volume as you increase & decrease the load on the bearing. So less likely to be a wheel bearing. And driveshafts are usually a click,especially on full lock, rather than a drone. And it d...

Re: Strange noise.... Help!

Had the car on all fours the other day, no signs of any fluid anywhere.

Tried taking some long sweeping bends, left and right, couldn't really tell wether the noise got better or not..

Re: Strange noise.... Help!

Sidewalls are fine.

Cheers for the replies. Went out for a drive earlier, it's a lot less subtle now- more like a whirry grind and throb than before. Starts around 25 mph and picks up with speed, still there when I coast to a stop in neutral.

Is there a way of checking the bits listed above?

Re: Strange noise.... Help!

Glad that's over with :) In answer to the questions- It seems to vary with road speed, not so much with revs. And I've absolutely no clue where it's coming from. I've listened, but can't pinpoint whether it might be from the front middle or one of the four corners. It doesn't feel/sound like a beari...

Strange noise.... Help!

Hi, I hope someone here can help or has had a similar experience with their RS6. I have a 2004 C5, my second RS6, that has developed a strange noise. I'd describe it as a droning, fast whirr. Not a whine. It comes on after around 35mph, then gets lost in the engine noise, but at speed i can just abo...
