Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

A low-pitched 'moan' in my Audi A4 ceased when I changed the worn rear tyres (it wasn't SWMBO...)

Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I have a 99 T carrera 2 cab and have noticed what seems to be axle whine as speed builds. Performance is not affected but it is becoming a bit tiresome and is ruining the sound of my sports exhausts!!
Has anyone any experience of this and if so am I in for a big shock? I would be grateful for any help prior to a garage inspecting and whacking me for something more serious!
Thanks

if the noise goes when coasting then it could possibly be a wheel bearing - if not hmm, could be a gear box - try it later and let me know

Hi All,
Mine does the same..perhaps I only notice it in 4th but it seems worse then. It dosent completely go when I dip the clutch but it is worse when accelerating. The OPC replaced the clutch about 3 months ago and drove it only 2 weeks ago so if it was something wrong surely they would tell me? Or is that asking too much???
I also thought that perhaps its just me being picky.. My old car was a BM and so quiet that perhaps its normal and I just notice it more?

I have new tyres on the car. One of my passengers commented on the noise and said it sounded like axle whine and could be a bearing.

thats ok - eliminate simple things like tyre noise from tread depth and pressures but if its so loud its drowning out the sports exhaust, it will probably be a wheel bearing

Oh mine is not very loud at all. In fact no-one else has ever mentioned it and I do have to turn the radio off to hear it.
How loud is yours really Tom?Can you hear it with the radio on?

pirelli p zero Assimetricos are notorious for a whineing noise, sometimes sounds like you have a stone between the brake disc and the pads
