Hey all
I seem to have a wining kind of noise coming from the back of my car, sounds like a bloody washing machine, but only when i go over 40MPH. I have been told its the wheel bearings, but just wanted to confirm before I purchased them.
Thanks
Dan

Re: are my wheel bearings gone
Jack the car up and spin the wheel you think it is and spin it and listen for a grumbling noise
It sounds like a bearing but you need to figure out which wheel it is

If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway

Jack your car up and pull the push top of wheel in while pulling the bottom out and see if there is any play do the same with the sides

thanks guys, its one of the back ones, so will probably change them both.
if one has gone, chances are the other on is close to going itself.
