HELP PLEASE: 'wooorring' noise coing from wheels 172?



  172
strange 'woooring' sound coming from wheels, definitely not coming from the engine because still happens when in neutral, faster i go the louder it gets, sounds like the kinda noise you'd expect from an electric car lol, just wondering if anyone has any ideas as to what it could be or has come across something similar, sounds like its coming from rear wheels more, i know i need new rear discs/pads, could this be anything to do with it? would really appreciate any ideas/suggestions? thanks

Rear wheel bearings

They are part of the discs on the rear of your car. So if you're getting new discs and pads this should cure it.

You should be looking to pay no more than £110 all in. That's discs, pads, the lot.

Discs should include bearing already pressed in and abs ring

How much just for 2 rear bearings G? I remember having to reuse mine when i swapped out the discs last time; Now they are making a din!

Have you got the tools at home to change them yourself? Presses etc?

If not, it's a false economy.

Let's say £20 a bearing as a ball park.

20x2 = £40
Fitting of the above, 1.5/2 hours labour probably. Minimum £60/80

New discs AND pads, £110.

Fit them yourself with basic tools.

I dont supply the bearings seprate mate. As above its false economy to try and change the bearings (using good quality bearings like what come in the Renault and Brembo discs)

May aswel change the discs and pads and you know they're good for some time to come.

Also make sure the little spacer/washer is present behind the disc and to retorque the hub nut to 175nm as both these things are vital to the life of the bearings

Cheers mate; that's odd in that case as the bearings would be less than a year old on the back! Do you think they were overtightened?

just waiting for payday to come around so i can get it sorted, is it gonna cause any longer term problems if i leave it for a couple of weeks?

Possibly be missing the spacer behind the disc, did discs and pads on mine last year and rear bearing has gone, not sure if there was a spacer on the side its gone on so ive got new discs, pads and spacers off G 172 coming tomorrow for the healthy sum of £117.
