Chris Wilson Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 I'd say hub bearings, buy new dust caps, removing the old ones usually destroys them, Toyota only parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 sounds terrible, definitely a bearing type noise. You could remove the caliper and try again, just to rule that out catching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewmc93 Posted August 14, 2017 Author Share Posted August 14, 2017 I'd say hub bearings, buy new dust caps, removing the old ones usually destroys them, Toyota only parts. £284 for the toyota bearings, when whifbits have similar for £90 surely they cant be that much worse, dont really have 284+ labour cost to spare !, what do you mean dust caps as that to me means the screw on caps on the tire valves . sounds terrible, definitely a bearing type noise. You could remove the caliper and try again, just to rule that out catching. I cant get the caliper off as they bolts are literally weld tight and even my body weight wont budge them.
