    Driveshaft maybe? Collapsed wheel bearing?

    Need to pop your head under and look for anything obviously loose. jack the van up one corner at a time and spin and waggle the wheel

    Good luck!

      Brakes binding? Mine does it as the peddle doesn't return fully and binds slightly.

              One of the CV joints could have partially collapsed.
              Could be an engine or gearbox mounting failed too.

                        Not in the 10+ years I've had mine - so either bad luck or someone after your wheels and got disturbed and scared off.....

                          Don't think anyone would want my wheels there extremely curbed

                            Have they been off lately?
                            Worth checking all bolts just incase.

                              Last time it was off was for a tyre change wondering if he forgot to torque them up
