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
