The noise on ours was caused by the General Grabbers , I swapped them front to back and the noise continued. Wether one was out of shape I don't know . Eventually tried the wheels/tyres off my Fl2 and it was resolved . Good luck and I hope you get sorted .

Used to be the way to do it way back when. Problems occur when so many tyres these days are directional. MY13 Santorini Black SD4 HSE |

Easy to answer as many tyres now are directional. I think its also a LR recommendation but can't be arsed to go find that. I switch mine on same side about every 10K as even wear makes the Haldex etc a happy bunny. FL2 MY10 TD4 GS traded in at 2 years FL2 MY13 TD4 GS Current |

Why is that Bob ? It should not make an Ha’porth of difference to test a tyre . The Fl2 does not to the best of my knowledge use directional tyres . If it did there would not be the option of a full sized spare wheel . Following your logic I could never use the spare . The only issues that mismatched tyres could theoretically cause on a part time 4x4 are if they are on the same axle you have one tread with a much greater depth than the other tyre and you ran it for some length of time . Again as a spare tyre is available and can be used you won’t cause any damage swapping the tyre as I suggested to see if the noise moves . 2009 GS Auto Zermatt Silver - Sold June 21 after 10 years of ownership 2016 Subaru Outback SE 2.0 diesel SE Premium Lineartronic Sold 2024 after 8 years and 80k miles .

Uni-directional tyres are fitted to my beast but my emergency only spare tyre is not uni-directional. Its about the only soloution to deal with the uni issue or use one time gunk.

Scorpion zero are very noisy. I replaced them with scorpion verde and they were quieter, when one of the verde had large puncture on the tyre wall i changed the whole set to Michelin. Cross climate and they are much quieter still. |
