Just the one, if we hear the noise again it will be to the garage again a lot quicker. ]]> Fri, 08 Jul 2011 10:42:22 +0000 http://www.forum.clubnissan.co.uk/forum_posts.asp?TID=4462&PID=23681&title=peculiar-noise#23681 Peculiar noise : Thanks for the info , there's... http://www.forum.clubnissan.co.uk/forum_posts.asp?TID=4462&PID=23680&title=peculiar-noise#23680 Author: mdvineng

Thanks for the info , there's nothing more difficult to diagnose than a sound you cannot hear. Did you have both sides done or just the one?]]> Fri, 08 Jul 2011 09:55:25 +0000 http://www.forum.clubnissan.co.uk/forum_posts.asp?TID=4462&PID=23680&title=peculiar-noise#23680 Peculiar noise : Noise has gone so it was the bearing... http://www.forum.clubnissan.co.uk/forum_posts.asp?TID=4462&PID=23679&title=peculiar-noise#23679 Author: DavidUK1

Noise has gone so it was the bearing CC £70 inc fitting & VAT so not too bad.

Thank you for the input.

bearings do go. vaux novas and corsa are renowned for knocking out rear bearings. i got so use to doing the it only use to take me 15-20 to do both sides micras with 14"+ alloys knock out bearings too

one thing that puts me off on the note is the nyloc nuts on the hubs imho there a bad idea due to the heat and vibration - replace them every time you touch the hub

Is the vibration/hum/grumble there all the time or is it at certain speeds ? have you had the wheels balanced or even swapped the wheels diagonally front to back ?

Thanks for the data, I've looked at the bearing data and they are only small opposed taper rollers in a captive bearing shell, Cheap and cheerful as most car parts are these days, it's also a simple and easy replacement procedure, I might just consider replacing the brake drums at the same time as they are not expensive either.

2006 Vehicle Mileage cc. 30K I think. I will check later. Another reason why I thought bearings unlikely. I have had one wheel bearing fail on an old mini back in 1974ish. We will see when I get the vehicle back whether the noise has gone. ]]> Thu, 07 Jul 2011 11:11:59 +0000 http://www.forum.clubnissan.co.uk/forum_posts.asp?TID=4462&PID=23667&title=peculiar-noise#23667 Peculiar noise : what's the age and mileage... http://www.forum.clubnissan.co.uk/forum_posts.asp?TID=4462&PID=23665&title=peculiar-noise#23665 Author: mdvineng

Local Garage has diagnosed rear wheel bearing. Maybe I didn't spin wheel fast enough to hear it because that was the first thing I looked at. There did not appear to be any play either. We will see if it has gone when I pick it up tomorrow.

That would seem true, so may be it is the wheel bearings. Do you know which side of the car it comes from, if so switch the wheels around and see if the symptoms follow suit.]]> Tue, 05 Jul 2011 15:57:25 +0000 http://www.forum.clubnissan.co.uk/forum_posts.asp?TID=4462&PID=23661&title=peculiar-noise#23661 Peculiar noise : I would expect dropped weights... http://www.forum.clubnissan.co.uk/forum_posts.asp?TID=4462&PID=23660&title=peculiar-noise#23660 Author: DavidUK1

I would expect dropped weights and bulges to exhibit a rythmic sound each time the wheel turned this is fairly constant low hum (like a wheelk bearing but they appear fine). ]]> Tue, 05 Jul 2011 15:37:06 +0000 http://www.forum.clubnissan.co.uk/forum_posts.asp?TID=4462&PID=23660&title=peculiar-noise#23660
