First, it is wiser to understand the nature 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 your Renault Espace 3. It is a phenomenon that can happen as much front, rear, left wheel or right wheel . Often it is a thud , quite similar to the sound that the wheel naturally emits, but louder and more serious. This noise should be heard 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 are not that many solutions there, you just have to change them. You should be aware that a blocked bearing can cause the wheel to stop completely. Making repairs alone at home requires a number of special tools. The best is to have a lift to raise your Renault Espace 3.
