I've been getting a 'droning' noise at approx 30mph and above, and it seems to be slowly getting louder.

Researching a bit it may be front differential issue or wheel bearing.

I can occasionally feel a little vibration/knocking under my right foot when on the floor in the drivers seat at over 30 mph, which i'm guessing may point to the differential being the problem?

Is it likely that changing the diff fluid would help or am I looking at a big problem? I'll do the front wheel wobble test for the bearings in the morning but if all there is well does anyone have any advice what to try?

many thanks

Knocking could mean it's a CV joint or even a prop UJ.
