I have these symptons, what might be the problem(s)??

Lately I am hearing more "tyre" noise from the n/s. The volume increases when I take a left hand turn.
The wheel doesn't get hot and there is no grease coming from the bearing. Can I rule a shot wheel bearing out?
There is also a distinctive "klung". LR diagnosed shot inner track rod which I replaced, "cupped" tyres and increased noise from the ARB. I replaced ARB bushes. Klung is still there and had the wheel alligned.
When changing the inner track rod there was a bit of oil dripping from it? Normal?

I also notice a light juddering again when accelerating, especially going uphill. Had the mega gear box flush and diff flush done earlier this year.

So, do I have multiple problems or could it all lead to one issue? Could it be the front diff causing this issues? Or just the wheel bearing?

Grabbing the wheel on the 3 and 9 o'clock position gives a very slight play. 6 and 12 doesn't seem to give any play.

as you've already done the track rod ends and had a 'mega flush'...

It could be either diff or bearing... I would try the bearing first as I would think its the cheaper option (I would do both sides as a matter of course if you have not replaced them previously)

As a matter of interest, di dyou do the front ARB bushes or rear (or all). Reason I ask as I had a 'klunk' that I thought was coming from the front, turned out to be the rear ARB bushes ?? once they were sorted no more 'Klunk'...

Had the front diff gone on my D2 once and that gave a grinding/metal sound.
Lets say its the front diff, what would I be risking if I continued driving. Planned to drive to Portugal next week.......

Hi VD,
Got my car booked at the local LR dealer here in the Algarve. I am having the suspension parts changed, wishbone, wishbone rubbers, track rod ends, etc. That will surely get rid of the klungs and hopefully the "tyre" noise as well.
Having gearbox checked as well.

fingers crossed then.
I had my front suspension struts change and fitted with new bushings 15000 miles ago, noice only apeared after I fitted 19, but not right after, so might jut be a coincidence...
