	After enjoying a good thrash around in the car today, i got this really weird nose coming from the front drivers side wheel. The noise is similar to the noise you get when the speedo cable is going. Ive done the following disconnected the speedo cable, and the noise is still there, ive had the car up in the air on axel stands and the noise isnt there. I was thinking maybe drive shaft as i got a knocked type noise from the same area as i booted it around a left hand bend, which i think was the start of the noise. Anyone got any ideas cheers PS: by the way i love driving around with a white bonnet :lol: get some much attention :o :thumbs:
