bieran7 Posted December 19, 2014 Report Share Posted December 19, 2014 i replaced the wheel bearing on my 1.4tdi arosa around 3 months ago and I've recently had to have it replaced again. (NSF) now its noisy again and I'm wondering if something is causing it to wear very quickly and I'm not solving the problem by replacing the wheel bearing I've been tad the hub could be out of shape. anyone ever had these issues?

Skezza Posted December 19, 2014 Report Share Posted December 19, 2014 Do you have **** tonnes of unnecessary camber? Genuine question, seems to be a common albeit daft mod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kermit Girl Posted December 21, 2014 Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 One obvious question - where did you buy the bearings? There are some pattern bearings on sale which are of dubious quality. It is best to pay a little extra for quality bearings and make sure they are fitted properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mk2 Posted January 3, 2015 Report Share Posted January 3, 2015 R U sure it's the wheel bearings? A noisy but not gone cv joint can make bearing type sounds at speed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mk2 Posted January 5, 2015 Report Share Posted January 5, 2015 hmmm only when turning strongly surely? I've had a golf that i was convinced the front wheel bearings were going, and it was the cvs. Wierd thing was that they didn't click when turning, although the central spiders had loads a play in them when the steering was pointing straight ahead. Changed to new cvs and silent running again. Odd huh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
