Paramanic Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 If it was me i would contact a local garage for someone to have a look or take it but if in a quiet road drive a little and open door or have someone to observe to make sure but would take it to garage Defo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bevrobbo88 Posted January 7, 2015 Author Share Posted January 7, 2015 U reckon it will be expensive job? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paramanic Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Not too sure but ma mate had this done on his mk6 fiesta and just went to a breakers and his local garage a can't remember how much it cost but a don't think it was too expensive considering you can get brand new wheel bearings for 70 from fordpartsuk but sound of metal scrapping aswell could be something to do with a bad spring Or drum brakes but sounds like bearing tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
