Rear Wheel Bearings

[mickter]

Hi All, 

I have a 2016 1.5 tdci C-Max, rear bearings sound noisy , car only done 20000 mls.

can they be repacked with grease.

all ready fitted sound deadening.

Thanks Mick.

First of all I would jack the car up and rotate the wheels by han to see if there is a noise, it can sometimes be a stuck calliper especially the near side one, if it is the bearing I believe they can not be serviced as such, is the noise a rumble of a whine.

Will jack up and check,but really sounds like w/bearing noise.

What tyres are fitted , I own the same car, same year etc, sometimes mine sounds the same , But then on a smoother road it disappears .So been thinking it might be the tyres which are Michelin Primacy as the sound would be there on any surface if it were bearings.

Good point about tyre noise not just michelins though any tyre that wears a little uneven can produce that sort of noise.
