Rolling noises are rather regular on vehicles, both for a Lancia Appia and for another model. But in practice, several components can generate bearing noise. Whatever happens, those are issues that need to be addressed. We will therefore see through this article what will be the most regular bearing noises on a Lancia Appia, and what you must do to remedy it.
Rolling noise front or rear wheels on the Lancia Appia
Above all, it is essential to understand the origin of the noise. If it is a noise coming from the engine, we will see that in the next paragraph. Here we will see the rolling noises coming from the wheels of the Lancia Appia. It's a phenomenon that can happen as much front, rear, left or right wheel . Usually it's a thud , quite similar to the sound produced naturally by the wheel, but louder and more serious. This noise should be accentuated when you turn the steering wheel in one direction, unless both sides are defective. If this is the case, this noise probably comes from the wheel bearings. There is not much to do in this case there, it will suffice to change them. Be aware that a locked bearing can cause the wheel to stop completely. Doing the repairs yourself requires a number of special tools. The best thing is to have a lift to raise the Lancia Appia.
Noise from the Lancia Appia engine
Even if there are bearings everywhere on a Lancia Appia, there are some components of the engine which are more conducive to generating this noise in question. Generally, it is either the pulley of the water pump , or the pulley of alternator . In both cases, it will either replace the bearing only, but we are necessarily more serene by changing the entire kit.
