ooooooooo from 40 to 60 mph 200 1991

Hi all,

I just fininshed replacing timing belt, tensioner, seals, crank pulley, accessory belts on son's 244. Now that everything is nice and quiet (for a 240), I've noticed a little "ooooooooo" kind of soft howl from 40 or 45 up to about 60 (as fast as I went on the way home). Definitely road-speed related, not engine speed; can't isolate it front to rear. Could it be the drive shaft bearing starting to go?

By the way, the timing belt was "rodrive" made in denmark (from FPC), everything else was "continental." I've used conti in the past, but "rodrive" was new to me . . .

Thanks in advance,

Steve A-
