Hi All,
I have searched through the site but surprisingly couldnt find much out about the front wheel bearings and how to identify if one is knackered. My 55 plate 1.2 passed its MOT with no advisories re bearings but it has a noise from the front passenger side (i think) wheel akin to something being caught between the disc and pad. This gets louder when on left hand bends and dissapears completely when braking. Brakes have been cleaned and checked so all I can think of is a bearing. Anyone replaced these? Is it a reasonably straightforward job or does it involve pullers and a press? Any comments or thoughts gratefully received
Cheers
