I think I'm getting paranoid

Leomas · Jun 30, 2016

So, I was gently moving down the lane to where I have to open the gate this morning and it felt as though a wheel was skipping on loose surface, except it is tarmac. As I concentrated there was a definite almost rhythmic lurch of no more than an inch as I crept along. Then I got to the main road and it was empty so I could come out easily but as I turned the steering there was a new noise from the front offside wheel. As I picked up speed all the noises were drowned by the engine/road noise and now I don't know if I want to check again or pretend it never happened.
I though owning a Disco was meant to be fun

What kind of Disco in the first place?

His profile says it's a Disco 2, Td5 engine, but it doesn't say anything about the year of manufacture.

Pretend it didn't happen, that's all I do whenever I think I've heard something 'wrong' now

Ignore it and it will either go away or get worse and tell you hat it is.

Dont panic.........something will explode soon enough

That's what I love about this forum

No matter how bad the situation and how badly you describe it you can get the full range of options offered from the very helpful members...

It's a 2001 TD5 Disco2 and after trying a nice slow drive on the way back this evening the weird 'snatching/judder/wheelspin' thingie wasn't happening so that must be while things are cold which I can ignore until October at least. The odd noise when going to full lock at low speed is still happening so obviously don't corner at low speed...simples
