v6shep Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Had my rear bearing replaced yesterday... Drove home, still have a loud rumbling and can feel it still too. Anyone have any ideas? I do know I need to replace that shock, but doubt that could be the cause Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evinX Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 It is the shock. Push the car down and itll just drop. Mine would rumble like mad at low speed and on smooth roads it would be ok. Its probably 90% shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

v6shep Posted May 13, 2015 Author Share Posted May 13, 2015 Really? It will give the whole "bearing has gone" noise and feel? I would never have thought that. I've recently bought some standards off a mate that have only done about 50 or 60k, I'll fit those for now, but those you've posted where the standard make on my car, been looking for another set, best save some pennies once I've got 4 new tyres for my other rims Cheers for that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzi Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Have you jacked up the car and spun all 4 wheels? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 As above. You really should confirm the bearing before replacing it. Often there are times where you are convinced it's the left when it's actually the right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 I just had front wheel bearing done on leon could feel it through the passanger footwell but turned out to be drivers side I was the same with the BMW. Happens all the time. Thankfully I had it up in the air to check before changing it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulj1 Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 It's not rust on the disc catching the caliper is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mplavery Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Bet you need a rear hub .. which you will have to buy another bearing again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
v6shep Posted May 18, 2015 Author Share Posted May 18, 2015 Right, done the r/h bearing, replaced both rear shocks, spun the n/S wheel (no problem there) o/s brake, either caliper or handbrake seems a little crappy, although all recently replaced, and still got the same noise and feel. So, unless the front has a dodgy bearing and it's vibrating to the back (unlikely) then I guess the hub is the answer..... More cash I don't have right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
v6shep Posted May 19, 2015 Author Share Posted May 19, 2015 Forgive me for sounding ignorant, but, could the vibration and noise come from the drive shaft at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 It could be a number of things to be honest. Best idea is normally to get it on a ramp and see if it can be diagnosed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evinX Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Or could this all be down to a bulged/damaged tyre? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
