Hi guys
I have got this nasty grinding noise coming from the front of the car. Worked out that is not the gear box or the stereo so wobbled the passenger side wheel and it kinda made a clunking noise. I think its wheel bearings and have booked it in to have them replaced on Wednesday. Lucky I haven't needed to drive Vern for the last week and a half.
Have I made the right call ?
Would appreciate any comments
Only had the bearings replaced in Feb 2005

hey peter have you tried jacking up the front and spin the front wheels to check if it makes the same noise
vern74 ·
here I am toiling at work
vern74 ·
No haven't done anything
Popped him in the garage when I last drove and left him there
Don't really know where the jack goes to be honest !
I am sure I could if I had too
That sounds bad hey

use under the head frame at the front ie the piece between the front end

Thanks mate
I will do when I get home tonight
Hes booked in anyway for whatever the problem is
I sorta think the last bloke that put the bearings in either just didn't or did a shit job at it
