dbrunton Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 I had my discs and pads changed all round, when the front passenger side wheel was removed the bearing was loose so had the bearing tightened up. When I got the car back all was fine but after about 25 mile started getting an intermittent knocking noise coming from the front passenger side, it is more noticeable when the car is steering right. I took it to the garage today the car was put on the ramps there is no play in the bearings, bushed and everything else all seams tight and as it should so left the garage and typical for me as I was near home it started happening but it is coming and going. Anyone had a similar issue or any idea what this maybe. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DavidAshton Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Just be careful you get the right one. The spline count is totally random and you need to make sure you get on with an ABS ring if you still have ABS. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
