Wheel Bearing

[Tom Wilde]

Just need a bit of an opinion guys. There is a loud droning nouse coming from the front left wheel that disappears when steering left, I had the same problem on my old car too, is it the wheel bearing on its way out?

Cheers

Wheel bearing for sure.

My mark 1 did this twice (both front went recently). Replaced one then the other went. Just replaced the other one last weekend.

Press is needed to do this job however.

Yeah I know about the press, bit of a b**ch. Going to get it sorted on Monday I reckon...Going to Silverstone on the 7th, bit of a trek with a dicky bearing

So is it the left or right bearing, bearing in mind it stops when I turn left? I would suspect the left one?
