I've just bought a second hand car (2013 vw mk7 gti), which makes a womp womp sound at speeds of 60kmh and increasing in frequency and volume as it gets driven upto 100kmh (I suspect something is wrong with the tire). Had a pre inspection completed before buying and theres no mention that wheel bearing and cv joint being problematic.
I'm using Bridgestone potenza re003, 70% tread left on them approx.
What do you guys reckon it could be?

Any associated harmonic vibration happening?
might be worth booking the car in to your trusted tyre shop to get all 4 balanced
I'll book it in this weekend for an inspection. There's no vibration at all. Steering wheel is solid under speed.Quote:

An out of balance rear wheel won’t come through the steering, but you’ll hear it.
What are the tyre pressures?
Tire pressures are 36psi, tires have done approx 14,000kmsQuote:
