Hi, I am getting a droning noise while driving at very low speeds and also around the 60 -70 mph, then after that it goes away, could this be tyre noise or something more sinister. I have replaced the runflats with normal tyres recently.

Tyres normly only make a noise at speed. Have a look around the wheels etc to make shore there is nothing a miss (loose under tray etc). Could be wheel bearings? I take it this happens all the time and not just on one road (eg its not the road surfice).

Check your tyre pressures are correct too smile

Also what tyres are they? I had Bridgestone RE040 on the rx8 and they made a droning noise.

Thanks for your replies, it is now sorted -front wheel bearing replaced, now very smooth and making the right noises
