Steve Q Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 Hi Steve, I'd be very surprised if your having a wheel bearing failing on a 4 year old car. But I could be wrong. I guess it depends on the mileage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnet Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 Hello Steve (Sheffield), Front or back? Mileage? I too agree with Steve - it would be unusual for a bearing to become noisy on a car of this age unless the the mileage is high for the year. (say>100K). Having said that, we thought we were experiencing rear wheel bearing noises on an A3 at around 90k, but in fact the noise was due to tyres ( premium brand) wearing to slight flatting points as they approached 4mm remaining thread. Perhaps you could let us have some answers to the questions, and no doubt someone can advise from there. Kind regards, Gareth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
