Windcloud03 Neutral Newbie December 20, 2011 Share December 20, 2011 Dear experts, I am a newbie in car servicing but mine is a 2nd hand 3 yo Honda Stream RSZ. My ride is usually bumpy and I can feel the noise within the car if going up to 80+ kph. Is it due to the suspension, vibration in the tyres (have changed since last servicing in July) or soundproofing problems? Please give me your comments. Thanks! ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thedream 3rd Gear December 20, 2011 Share December 20, 2011 hard to guess without you describing what kind of noise you're referring to... but since you mentioned "bumpy," are your tyres pumped higher than recommended? If so, can try pumping less air... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Windcloud03 Neutral Newbie December 20, 2011 Author Share December 20, 2011 Oh yes, forgot to describe the noise. It's like engine coupled with tyre sounds, seems either soundproofing is not so good or something is wrong with the tyres. My service guy told me 34psi for front and 32 for back wheels.

Windcloud03 Neutral Newbie December 20, 2011 Author Share December 20, 2011 (edited) The noise is like those you hear during plane takeoff. Thinking to get the cars serviced again...changed to Goodyear soft tyres at Huat Lee because of this problem during last servicing.

Once lifted up, almost no weight on bearing, it will be easier to turn. Mustank axle so expensive? Must change whole axle? Is it 4wd? u changing the differentials is it?

Is it 4wd? u changing the differentials is it? lucky i bought the 2 wheel drive version (rear wheel drive). mech told me that the whole axle gone case, must change everything. only thing no need to change is the axle housing. because no one hold stock such a rare breakdown item in SG, they got to DHL from korea. $3800 But when no breakdown, i one person can physically push mustank for short distances.
