Breakdown on way home

Just set off for home and this started happening. What do you think it is, sounds like it’s coming from the front.

 

Can’t see it hear. @zedders normally good on stuff like this

 

Sounds and feels like a knocking coming somewhere on the front

 

So does the bus still move?sounds like it’s running

Which, though you're hearing it in the front, could well be CV joints. Does it ease off if you lift off the accelerator?

 

It doesn’t ease off, when I lift of the accelerator, think I felt it when I was pushing on brake pedal, while stopping the van

 

I thought it might of been a puncture to start with

 

Perhaps take a look at your tyres then, I had one grow a bubble on the inside sidewall once!

 

As above

Check your wheel nuts ... there are those on here who know the sound. Or CV joints..

It sounds too fast for one rotation of the wheel..

 

Check the tyres are not so worn that the tread is come away from the steel band, it can act like a whip going around

 

So, while waiting for the RAC to turn up, I checked the front wheel and found three wheel nuts that where loose. Cancelled the RAC and started on my home.
All good again until a kamikaze pigeon hit us with 10 miles to go.

 

I bet that made you jump!

 

Winner, winner, chicken dinner.

 

Great time to go find a heated windscreen...

 

Typical Late Bay day out

 

Thats not the original as it looks laminated.
With the original, a quick punch and this happens...
Mind you driving home glad you are wearing long trousers and some boots as the glass is all over your lap is no fun.. along with hoping the blood stops dripping off your hand..

 

Pigeon, more like...

 

Oh dear remember toCover the heater outlets before you remove the rest of it,
Otherwise it blows out bits of glass for ages… I found this out

 

What an adventure! Glad you survived
