Just bought a 2002 330d m sport at the weekend and its a nice little car....today while driving, I noticed upon heavy acceleration I heard a weird noise from the rear of the car like a flat tire sound....checked the car and it was fine...

Later I picked up the nipper from school tootling home just driving sedately the car started to make the same weird noises especially on bends???

Checked when I got home all looks well....but I'm worried something's gonna go big style...does anyone have any ideas???

    As Snypa said mate, could be quite a few things.

    I know it's probably difficult, but can you be more precise on what area it's coming from?

    Maybe get someone to sit in the middle of the rear seats and take it for a drive.

    As above... Wheel hub-bearing(s), worn crown-wheel, live-axle UJ, loose nuts... Many things
