Clicking sounds from spinning wheels

[mhuk]

Guys,

My 940 turbo 1997 manual.

Today I replaced the rear calipers. I spun the rear to see if the wheel bearings are noisy.
I never heard them rumble so bit concerning to heat this....


I posted this on fb. They reckon diff is bad. One chap said hand brake.

What do you all think?

Cheers

If that's bearing noise, then they're shot.
However, the only thing you've changed is the calipers. Is there something catching and rubbing? Have you bent something?

Here's a link to your video without the extra "]" :

Meanwhile, i recognise that sound!

The diff was making as much noise as both sides put together, i thought i'd gone deaf when i fitted the replacement back axle!

On mine it was wheel bearings and diff bearings plus some extra whine and rattle from the crown wheel and pinon in the diff because of the extra play so made a right cacophony!

Think Luke ( 360 Beast ) might have a diff for sale

You can buy some of the bearings from;

My only comment is, I'm pretty sure the bearing's they sent out weren't labelled/branded, so I didn't know what kind of quality I was getting.

The other option is http://bakaxel.se/bakaxlar.html, but you'll have to translate the pages into English unless you're fluent in Swedish, you may also have to email them to confirm whether they can ship to the UK.

You could give these chaps a go https://th-pettersson.se/sv/artiklar...oms/index.html
I used them to get hold of that diff, the only thing you don't get is the axel bearings. But you'll then need someone to build it all up. They'll also need to be able to remove the collar and inner race from the axel shafts then fit the new stuff! You'll also need the axel seals...

If you search for "lm501349/14" I think you'll find that these may be the diff bearings (or the axel shafts), either way, you'll need a pair...

Hope you get that sorted!

hi i had a clicking sound on a 240 estate 1988 model was diagnosed as DIFF still remember it now doing a steady 60 mph and the click came on quite load in cabin
independent volvo man had a donner car so he swopped whole back axel it cost about £300 back in 1995 he said very rare he had seen them fail. another volvo mechanic said he could repair it but still very expensive .anyway it was a great car sold it in 1999 to a mechanic. and got my current car 940 TDI
my thoughts only as you need to be sure what the problem is !
keep us informed !

No doubt I have missed something ..... but IF this noise wasn't present before the rear caliper change why has it suddenly appeared now during reassembly? Short answers preferred!

I just don't think he noticed it Bob, it can creep up on you and it's only when you need to do something like the calipers that you notice it or you drive/ride a car that doesn't have that problem.
Thing is, in his video the rear calipers are nowhere to be seen on the axle, same as in mine so obviously nothing to do with the calipers, just coincidence.
