A couple of weeks ago I started to hear this weird noise which almost sounded like something rubbing on one of the tyres. It was speed related and got louder the faster I went. I couldnt see anything that could be causing it so guessed it was a wheel bearing problem.
After a week it got very loud (seemed to only be noisey on the inside) and as my car was due for its first MOT I thought I would see what they would find!
Sure enough I got a phone call to say it had failed due to a very rough offside rear wheel bearing (which was probably also making a lot of noise!). It was gonna be £110 inc. to fix and as I had heard it was a fairly tricky job without the right tools I told them to do it.
All was fine until this weekend I started to hear the beginings of the same problem. Its also coming from the rear but I cannot work out which side. Can I be so unlucky that the other side has gone also?! I know 17" rims put more stress on them but both within two weeks? If its the same side do you think they will fix it for free?
Doh!
