Sounds like I have a wheel bearing issue on driver side, over 40mph start getting noise. 

Does anyone have part number so I can see what the price is before frauds try charge me extortionate prices. 

Also got mot service due so would like to get sorted before then.

    It would help if the parts site 7zap wasn't currently unavailable, something to do with a bit of a diasagreement between a guy called Putin and the rest of the world.

    I'm not sure it's anything to do with that?  The site seems to have had a major overhaul, at least of the front page.  Guessing it hasn't worked out as planned! :sad:

    I'm not convinced, there are a lot of Russian & Chinese sites currently 'unavailable' might be just coincidence, but odd that Cloudflare seems to be the gatekeeper that is unable to connect.

    Assuming it's not common to have a wheel bearing issue for car with 32k miles. Going to get it checked at independent garage. Not sure what else it could be to fair.
