Wheel bearing maybe.

[FAST AL]

Anyone noticed a sort of wheel bearing shallow noise coming from the rear in my case.Tyres are wearing well apart from the front one's that only have a few thousand miles left in them even though car's only done 14k.Put this down to being driven too harshly from new.I bought it with 6k on the clock after it must have been a fleet vehicle or rental or something.No other problems ever though.Sounds like just a shallow droning sound,very quiet but noticeable.Maybe tyre noise eh?

Check for "saw-toothing! on the rear tyres. If you see it, its the tracking and you need 4-wheel alignment.

Well, this is what I was told when I took my car in for its 16K service.

I had my rear wheel bearings go at about 15k miles.. Both replaced under warranty and the noise went away!

I'll have to have another look at it then.No saw toothing with mine though.Rears are wearing nice and evenly.So are the fronts come to that,they just wearing down quickly.

Got through my fronts in less than 9k! - now hold off the power/torque and get 15k. .............................!!
