rite i have the usual droanign wen turning prob with my car sent it 2 mechainc he noticed top mounts were fucked so i paid him 2 do them but he cudnt solve the droaning, he said it was nothign 2 worry about and deal with it, but it got worse the day after so just went to the local car park and jacked up the drivers side and tried the wheel eobble, i got wobble wen i held it left and right but not at all wen top and bottom (im suspectign there was wobble on left and right coz of the steering, then i went to the passenger side and tried it and got a wobble wen i held the wheel top and bottom it was very slight but was defo there, also wen i spun the wheel there was an on and off griding noise very faintly, so it is 100 percent my passenger side bearing isnt it? also the noise comes frm the footwell area of passenger side, so any idea on price of new bearing?
