530d hum at 40 mph
Discussion
hiya everyone,
new member here, got a problem with e39 tourer, 2001
have got a humming sound after about 1 mile.
i have done the front hub, bearings, both sides but its still there.
its done 114k, my son says its at the back, he,s 13yrs old and has better hearing than me [loud guitars].
could it be a rear bearing, i can feel something on the steering
wheel very slightly wen i turn left or right, on the move
its a auto 30d. wen i slow down from say 45 it gets deeper.
any ideas will be welcomed. thanks good discusions on this forum.

thanks to mattoz and egbert,
good advice. i changed the front tyres to michys[primacy]
previously dunflops and it made a vast improvment,
its still there at a lesser volume after say 15 mls,
does the same apply to the rear, i have a feeling that wen the tyres
warm up it kickes in.
also after that distance the ride on the rear gets bumpy, bit solid.
i have self levelling s,pension, is this the walls of the tyres on the back, i dont recognise the name of the tyres,
the suspension is level at all times on the rear.
thank you both for your help. billy
