need to find out which of my rear bearings are dead. when i do the f1 style driving (hard left and right)the car makes the bearing noise when i am going right but not left. could someone tell me which bearing needs replacing. thanks regards brett
Had that prob. (To name a few...) My right rear bearing was making such a racket that my mechanic was reluctant to give my keys back when I told him Id bring it back to be fixed after "...I just nip down with the zed to Melb (from Syd) for the week." When I eventually took it back to him to fix, he found that although the right rear was making all the noise, he was surprised to find it was actually the left rear that was the most deteriorated out of the two. :| So I guess noise isn't the best indicator of wear, eh? Either that, or Im very gullible with my mechanic. Lou.
Mine was making noise when >>> the car was going in a straight line. It was clearly coming from the passenger side, and sho 'nuff that was the one. Equally, the front driver's side was also making a racket a couple of months later. Much better now.
