Buzzzzzz
I'll try to keep THIS one short.
I've started getting a buzzing sound from the passenger's side rear wheel
area. It's not the fuel pump (though that makes quite a chorus too). It
sounds like a cross between huge knobby tires goin' down the highway and
a crop duster flying right over you head, only not as loud. It is
vehicle speed dependent, and smooth - not pulsating. Do I need a new
wheel bearing (Quantums are mechanical twins to the 4ks non-quattro -
rear has drums and a spindle)? Or a taper roller bearing? Anybody heard
this before and fixed it?
One more thing. Where's the reset for the service light (lights up OXS
light on dash)? Any of you Quantum guys know? Tom? Rob?
Thanks
Jeremy
