limbo Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 Advise needed, I have a ticking noise coming from the Nsr rear wheel it only starts when the wheel gets warm, today I reversed into a parking space and the noise was like a grinding noise but only going backwards I popped into my ford dealer but service was closed and not able to look at for three days. Any advise gladly accepted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanGersFord Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 Sounds like a wheel bearing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
limbo Posted February 17, 2013 Author Share Posted February 17, 2013 Just had it serviced last week, been fine since then only done 20,000. They had trouble getting locking wheel nuts off as tyre depot had done them up with air gun so had to replace with new set after hacking them off could this have caused damage?

DanGersFord Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 Possibly. But wheel bearings can go at anytime Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanGersFord Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 I had to get a wheel bearing replaced just a month after a brand new one had been fitted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
limbo Posted February 17, 2013 Author Share Posted February 17, 2013 Would this be a warranty item? Not much is covered I know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanGersFord Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 Mine was changed under warranty but I payed extra for my warranty since it was a 2nd hand car so not sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b1g_dav3 Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 Does sound like a baring; unless you have something in the tyre? Could be worth checking. Or could be this... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

limbo Posted February 18, 2013 Author Share Posted February 18, 2013 Well some good news put the car into a small family run garage and after a couple of hours got a call to say that the noise was coming from the front of the car on investigation it turns out that when ford put new pads in they didn't clean the lip on the disc that's what was causing the noise, anyway these guys have cleaned the disc and the car is as good as new. Oh and the cost 39 pound, that's where my car will be going for service in future such pleasant people I actually left feeling good after spend money on the car.

DanGersFord Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 Small garages tend to be more appreciative for your business than bigger garages and tend to do a better job so that people will go back to them. The bigger garages dont care. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
