Car Forum / Jaguar Cars / January 2006Droning noise from front offside wheel, i think.
My X-type has a loud droning noise that occurs at any speed, under power or not, the only consistent thing about it is that any pressure on the brake pedal and it goes for the duration of the pedal. The noise is intermittent and not dependant on cornering! Any ideas? 2001 2.5 se Sounds like a wheel bearing to me, get it checked sooner rather than later.

I will try the wheel swap, I have also been told it could be the pads moving slightly and rubbing when they do and that 45deg chamfer will fix the issue! and views on this? I will try the wheel swap at the weekend and let you know how it goes.
