So while you're working on the car you might as well as both - think of it as preventative maintenance. |

EDIT....... but if you are not doing them yourself I am sure there is time/money beefits of getting the pair done at the same time in the stealers! |

wheel bearing niose
i to have a strange rotational niose from the back end started a few days ago while doing 70mph suddenly a loud ticking /rattleling niose could be heard was quite
loud so i pulled over to investigate but couldent see anything obvious. ticking/rotational niose continues now but not as loud as in the first instance. i thought it was the heat shield above the back box but niose still there after i removed heat shield. doesent seem to make the niose in reverse but can only drive slow in reverse it does get louder with speed the nios sound like this; tick tick tick tick as a rotational sound. any help would great its really annoying. could it be propshaft/diff /drive shaft? thanks in advance derek |

How easy is replacing the wheel bearing in reality?
Hi guys,
I'm swithering on whether to have a go at replacing the wheel bearing myself...... On the plus side:
On the downside:
I've done some basic repairs following the guide on this site (BestGear stuff was 10/10), I am prepared to be patient, take my time and invest some modest cash in acquiring some necessary extra tools that I can use again & again to save money in the future. But I don't want to bite off more than I can chew and screw up with a wheel in the air, the car on stands and unable to get it along to a dealer if I've done some irreversable damage to the bolts / bearings of drive shaft etc. Any thoughts or opinions? Can you direct me to any step-by-step guide that is quality assured in the real world? David |

Too late.....
Roy,
Four Bridgestone Blizzaks LM-80 'appeared' in my garage late last week from a DPD van with best wishes from LoveTyres.com But thanks for the suggestion. David |

It's notoriously difficult to diagnose which wheel bearing is making a noise. I'm guessing if it's a droning noise that it's one of the rears. It was in my case. The front one made a screeching noise. Make sure they use the complete bearing kit. i.e. with the new seals. All the best. Roy

Roy,
On the basis that I have approx. 112k on our XC90 and we were on the second set of Pirelli Scorpion Snow & Ice fronts / first set of rears, I think I can safely say that your record with the Wintracs should be safe! Bearing in mind that about half of the mileage we've done would have been on summer tyres. OUr Volvo dealer is doing the tyre swap on Thursday and I've asked them to have a listen to the wheel bearings while they've got the car jacked up and all four wheels off. Hopefully, they'll be well placed to confirm if it's a wheel bearing(s) and which one. Best wishes, David |
