Hello. I am experiencing a "moaning" or "whining" noise that would come and go while at a stop light or when the car is at rest. I do not hear it while the truck is in motion. I wonder if any of you have had this experience. I love my 2002 Disco and would like to keep it forever. I am not a gear head but I have a reputable mechanic who mainly work on British cars. Any thoughts? Cheers.

 

My first thought is that there may be a small child or "elfish" person hung up on your differentials. I would check that first. If its not that than I have no idea...

 

Haha, I actually was joking around with my wife that it was the truck complaining about how she drove the truck. Cheers.

 

Airbags, maybe?

 

Yeah your post made me think of the time I found muddy finger prints around the bottom of my front wheel which made me wonder if my music was so loud I couldn't hear the hermit I ran over somewhere in the woods.

 

I would guess it may be your PAS pump going bad, does it groan when turning the wheel at a standstill?

 

No, it doesn't groan or moan when you turn the wheel but it does sound pump related.

 

Can you replicate the sound with the truck stopped? If so I would stick my head under the hood and try to narrow down the area that it is coming from.

 

No, unfortunately I could not replicate it. Bummer.

 

You sure it is not just your fans kicking on?
