Could be a diff bearing? My rear diff has started to rumble at about 30 mph.
If you've been through deep water and some has got into the axles it will quickly ruin things..... 2002 90 Td5 Station Wagon 1990 Vogue SE Triumph Tiger Explorer 1200 Td5 90 Thread http://www.defender2.net/forum/topic50767.html Tdi 110 Thread https://www.defender2.net/forum/topic69562.html RRC Thread http://www.defender2.net/forum/topic54492.html Instagram http://www.instagram.com/george_grafton |

Well I haven't deliberately been wading but you never know.
About 40 mph seems a favourite but does seem sporadic, I could understand it a bit more if I'd been off-road but I haven't. Nothing different to normal really, except for lots of water about so all I can think of is as you say maybe water got somewhere. I think I'll grease the props and UJ's anyway shortly, see what happens. After that, drain axle oils and replace if need be. Looking underneath today, there didn't seem anything seriously untoward so will have to see what I can sort out. Might pay to clean all the wheels up too, maybe got some mud and stuff on the inside of the rims. $W33T $0U7H3RN $UG4R ๐ฌ๐ง๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ท๓ ฌ๓ ณ๓ ฟ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ๐ฎ๐ช๐บ๐ธโฝ๏ธ๐ข๏ธโ๏ธ๐งฐ๐ช |

I dropped millie off at my indy's for another 6,000 mile service, so she is in for 2 days instead of the usual 1 day, this is to sort out some very annoying problems

^^^ depends on how tall you are arran
Well i went out to my store to day to help load her up and say goodbye ..................................................... Click image to enlarge 
Well i never thought this day would come, but with over 30 years of ownership she has gone to a good home and will be having a lot off TLC
This leaves a big space in my store now, so all i need to do to get even more space now, is sell the 2 defender axles, have a good clear up/out and then i can finally start my 90 project  1996 Golf Blue 300Tdi 110 Pick up.

Yesterday she had new engine mounts, new injector loom and a new bung in the head behind the exhaust manifold to put a end to a coolant leak.. oh and the exhaust manifold skimmed as she was a little out of shape.
Today Iโve got myself a MOT and she passed with a couple of advisories โoil leakโ and a slightly corroded front brake pipe.
Fixing fluid leaks is a weekly job , one to continue in summer |

Long time lurker on the forum here, took my 110 I've been restoring to the MOT, radiator hose blew off in the queue and spent a good few minutes hanging inside the bay trying to reaffix it. I think the technician enjoyed the sight because it flew through with no problems.
