Changed the brake pads as that's what we thought the grinding/scratching noise was. Ended up being a collapsed wheel bearing, same symptoms as you have described. Lucky we caught it when we did as they were in a bad way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfr rob Member 29 Member For: 17y 9m 28d Posted 15/06/14 08:13 PM Share Posted 15/06/14 08:13 PM Did you replace the bearings yourself? What was involved?My Terry is vibrating now at much lower speeds. I swear it's a bearing but I cant feel any movement in the wheels when jacked up. Front left does sound average when spinning it while it's on jack stands, and I can hear a strange squeek every now and then when driving at low speeds.

It's best you have a hydraulic press handy also a bearing puller or if you're able to drop it to a shop with these tools it makes the job a lot easier. Took us near 10 hours, with the right tools it'd be a 3 hour job max Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So stoked, it was a terrible feeling to have throughout the car.Can you chuck up a pic of the old engine mounts mate?Were they rooted or just looking scabby?

The only visual problem was the very top where the bolt is, the rubber around it was shagged out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
