Rolling noises prove to be fairly common on automobiles, both for an Opel Mokka X and for another model. But in reality, various constituents can generate rolling noises. Whatever happens, those are dysfunctions that need to be dealt with. We will see through this post what will be the most common bearing noises on an Opel Mokka X, and what to do to repair it.
Rolling noise front or rear wheels on the Opel Mokka X
First, it is important 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 your Opel Mokka X. It is a phenomenon that can occur as much front, rear, left wheel or right wheel . In general, it is a thud , quite similar to the sound produced by the wheel, but louder and more serious. This noise should be accentuated when you turn in one direction, unless both sides are damaged. If this is your case, this noise may come from the wheel bearings. There are not a lot of solutions in this case, you just have to change them. Be aware that a locked bearing can cause the wheel to stop completely. Doing the repairs yourself requires some special tools. The best is to have a lift to raise your Opel Mokka X.
Noise from the Opel Mokka X engine
Even if there are bearings in many places in an Opel Mokka X, there are a few parts of the engine that are more likely to generate this type of noise. In general, it is either the pulley of the water pump , or the pulley of alternator . For one as for the other, it will either replace the bearing only, but we are necessarily more serene by changing the integral kit.
