HELP - Strage Flapping Noise coming from Offside corner
Ok, I've had my discs and pads about a month now, and there noisey, but i'v gotten use to them.
Recently got my alloys re-furbed, and driving this morning to work, down the A40 i started to hear this flapping noise. It gets more intense as i speed up, and it seems to eminate from the passanger corner.
Rolling donw the windo i can kind of hear something, but in honesty, cant hear much over my Nur Spec R...
Had a good look round the arch when i stopped, but nothing, to see, nothing loose.
Anyone have any idea what to look at, and i mean ANY idea beause im racking my brain
on what to look at.
It is a flapping noise, not a creak or clunk or squeal...

If you have something stuck to your tyre or a plastic bag or somthing else wrapped around your front driveshaft it may make that sound the faster you go.
Equally look at the engine undertray. At each corner you''ve got plastic fastners holding up even more bits of plastic cowling. Make sure nothing has popped out from behind the bumper and is flapping away in the wind as you;re driving along.

Thanx for the replies Scoobiewrx555, i just checked now, and it's my tyers, due to potenza's being slightly used, and slightly beaded, the beadings coming off in strips...hence the flapping...
Fell like a tit really for not noticing it sooner, and just not clicking really...lol..
