The less psychically-gifted amongs us might need a few more clues.

What's the "it" that's making the noise - roughly? The radio? The passenger? Does it change with road speed? Does it change with engine speed (car stationary)?

Are any of the tyres very flat (particularly at the bottom)?

the car is making the noise

worse on speeding up/slowing down

front tyre is a little low (but only on the bottom, so thats ok!)

have crawled around underneath, cant see anything loose.

just taken it for a drive, and I cant hear what she means, so am gonna leave it for now

thanks tho :wink:

:)
