Hi folks.

I've recently taken an 03 D2 out of storage - it's sat for around 2 years while I'm dealing with other projects. Back when I built it, I only refreshed what really needed it. Fluids, tie rods, head gaskets, cooling system. Then I ran into an electrical problem that caused the seat not to move. Yep, that's all it took it to sit.

Anyway, COVID. More time..less real work. Fixed that with a new switch.

I took it to get the alignment done, and was doing some light Italian tune-ups (e volavo, volavo felice ) gioco di parole....

And well, it sounds like the front end is grinding itself apart. Is this going to be a wheel bearing, or diff issue? Sounds different from the previous wheel bearings I've run across.



Cheers!

 

And if anyone in the Chicagoland area can program a new key fob, that would be great! Currently do not have one, just an empty shell.

Cheers!

 

Can't hear anything in video. Front driveshaft may be froze up from sitting so long?

 

I don't think so, IIRC the front driveshaft is new from LK8.

I've pretty much summed it up to a wheel bearing. Has an ever so little amount of play that I had to concentrate on to notice.

Have new hubs coming in..
