bearing

As in title, I had a rear wheel bearing replaced about a year ago and the car failed MOT due to uneven wear this year. It's worn almost to no tread on inside and virtually no wear on outside. Garage doesn't want to know after this length of time. Another mechanic says it's something to do with a...

Can a bad front wheel bearing make noise and vibration on one side of the car but no vibration in steering wheel? Left side of the car vibrates (sometimes more, sometimes less, sometimes no vibration at all) at highway speeds. Changed left side rear wheel bearing, still the same noise. I had...

Hi all, My E92 diff pinion bearing has failed again.. only had it reconditioned less than 2 years ago but it's out of warranty now. One driveshaft is leaking too. Rather than replace my diff like for like again at great cost (the 3.91 small case differentials are seemingly more expensive and...

There seems to be loads of tools on the market to pull bearings, is there any you guys can recommend?

Turbo bearings failed (whistling grinding noise) have had one specialist quote £1300 to fix. What should I buy other than the turbo to give to my mechanic to fix? Crankcase breather etc. Anyone recommend good turbo supplier. . Been told Garrett best but at £800 just for the turbo I figured I'd...

Hi all, Looking for some advise and sorry in advance for the long post but I've been struggling with this for a while A couple of months ago I noticed a little humming/buzzing noise while driving down the motorway, when I looked at the tyres it's appeared my front drivers side was a slightly...

Hi guys. I am co grunting with a situation where a mechanic tells me something, and another one, something else. The problem is like this. I have a 3 series e90 with a reader speed sensor not working. Been to a bmw garage and I have been told that the sensor is faulty and reluctor ring is...

Hi each and all - as some of you are probably aware I am doing a rebuild on my 320d e92 I have just been quoted £307.16 for Main Bearing shells inc Thrust bearing ( Top & Bottom ) plus Main Bearing ASA bolts - which is ridiculously expensive It appears that the block part of the shells are...

Hi everyone, Bit of background: Ive owned my E46 323ci for about 7 years now, never really missed a beat other than the usual little things. Done a lot of work myself covering something like 100 separate jobs when things have needed replacing, every squeak and rattle sorted as it occurs. 184k...

Hi all, I developed a whining from my car just before Christmas which has slowly gotten louder. I took it to the garage and thought possibly a wheel bearing but can't hear it with windows down. Now it looks like it could be a gearbox bearing??? I'm not a mechanic and usually garage my cars...

Hi, On the morning of the engine failure I was driving down a dual carriage way towards the motorway. As I got towards the end of the carriageway before joining the motorway the 6 series started making a rattling noise which rapidly got louder and sent vibration throughout the car. I got the...

Car has been kind of hesitating prior to accelerating hard after long periods at 50mph sections of traffic. Then the other day it hesitated and then broke, lost power, very lumpy running, I coaxed it off the motorway and parked up. Then lumpy running got worse then high pitched squealing then...

So my AC clutch bearing has some movement which causes some noise, but no real issue right now, though it will undoubtedly fail. Wiggling things around the main shaft still seems solid, it's only the pulley moving around. The compressor clutch engages properly so aircon works just fine. I've...

All I can say is fxxx and fxxx and plenty of fxxx. The four bolts that hold the bearing in place are super tight. They must of been put on by he-man or some other unnatural being. I broke sockets and extension bars doing this job. So my advise is to undo the bolt that clamps the shock. Then...
