wheel bearing, 16v

[funkimic]

noticed it last night. i think its coming from the rear left wheel but cant be sure. sounds like a sighing noise when you round right hand bends. tryed it in neutral round corners and its still there. does this sound like a bearing and how much for a garage to fix you reckon??

cheers

IIRC they are roughly £60 a corner !! Not really a DIY job !!

you need a press really to change the bearing

under an hour per side usually....

If rear needs pressing in. Did mine myself as fitted tarox rears but if you go for standard renault abs rear disks they will come with the bearing already pressed in. Can use those even if dont have abs so worth it as will probably be teh same (or less) than the cost of bearings removed from current disk and new ones pressed in.

yeah... totally forgot about that.... now a days they are well priced as well....



good call Matty

you could fit the discs with the bearings in but im sure if you removed the disc an ats style place would only want £5 to £10 just to swap the bearing over.
