Hub bearing

[Jam-Speed]

Hi fellow clio sport owners.

I have a 182 now done nearly 35k miles, and it started off as an intermittant know but now its nearly constant, coming from the front drivers side wheel area, kind of a grinding noise happens when i'm cruising (not accelerating or out of gear and still moving).

Car has been lowered 35mm if this makes any difference.
any information like is this the likely cause, and if anyone has had it replaced before, how much it costs roughly. (and would it be an easy job for me to do)
thanks

If it is the hub bearing you will need to remove the hub and take it to a local mechanic to get the old one pressed out and the new one pressed in.

If it happends when you let it roll out of gear. then its nearly 80% the wheel bearing.
