Strange noise just started from back end of car
 
Hi guys, hope someone might have an idea what this could be, as I don't have a clue!

It started last night, when coming to a stop at a junction just before I stop there is a sort of "whooooooooooo" noise from the back of the car. Not the sound of air, and not the sound where metal is rubbing against metal, its difficult to describe. I suppose like the sound of something slowing down.

Is this likely to be the Dccd?

I don't think its a wheel bearing as its not constant.

Any ideas would be appreciated cheers!

I think the cold weather definately makes a difference with road noises i.e tyre noise and bearings etc.

Does with mine anyway!

Yeah its definitely a possibility I suppose, and I'm now wondering whether it may well actually be a bearing/bearings. Its certainly coming from the back of the car.

Theres no grumbling, whining, noises though, its when coming to a slow stop that it seems to do it the most.

Its never done it before, but things get older and less capable, I suppose!

Thanks for the idea, could be the cause!

Did you remember to let the wife out of the boot?

Haha I let her out the other day (finally!).

Just been for a spin, narrowed it down to brakes, one is locking on I think.

Will get someone to look at it :)

Sounds to me as poolio suggested
Tyre noise (wine) as its not constant
It's the ply of the tyre on different surfaces due to cold
