S60 rumble when turning Right.
Hi folks, hope someone can offer a bit of advice.
I have an 04 S60 (D5) - When turning right at around 50 mph I get a very distinct rumbling which sounds like its coming from the front n/s. I was convinced it was a bad bearing so I replaced the hub but the issue persists. The noise sounds exactly like a bearing that's on its way out, Car drives fine otherwise and all 4 hubs are free spinning with no free play. Should also mention I replaced both Track rod ends and drop links which were worn but not badly, again made no difference. Thanks |

Did you look at the inner ends of the tie rods? I'm in my third set.
Have you checked the front bush on the lower wishbone arm? The n/s one by the sound of it. Both these bushes are visible from the top with the bonnet open. N/s is a bit trickier with the air filter and so on. If you have a manual transmission, put it in top gear and rock the car back and forth. A few mm is ok, a bad one is fairly obvious. |

I had pretty much the same, including replacing a perfectly fine bearing without reason (sucks). Next time I would suspect a bearing, I will turn it by hand before removing the 4 bolts. Turns out, on mine it was simply a tire. Not necessarily a bad tire, just the brand and perhaps the wheel geometry on that side - I'm suspecting the camber setting, or, as mentioned, wear on wishbone bushes or even on the subframe bushes, causes some change in the camber or even caster numbers.
