i have a strange thump coming from what to me seems to be the front end of my car... i HAD a bent rim but recently got it repaired... i checked all the other rims and found no flat spots in those either... is there anything other than a dented rim that would cause a thumping noise like that??? my engine runs perfectly fine... tranny shifts perfect as well and my VAG-COM isnt reading anything either... its super annoying and would appreciate some insight thanks to all

I would think one of your axles may be bent or something wobbling at that speed. The only way to pin point that is to get it on a rack and run it up to speed. Being suspended will exagerate the condition and you will be able to pin point which wheel its coming from. Then have that wheel put on a balancer to see if its bent. If its not you have a bent axle.

 

i sure hope its not the damn axle i had both of them replaced at the same time less than 6 months ago... but your never know... good thing i got the 30k waranty on those... i will have them replace both of them under waranty, and see if that does it... thanks for the insight i apprecciate it
