Rumble in the Rear !

After reading these  boards for 12 months and  hearing the sorry and sometimes gruesome stories of rear wheel bearing failure, my Scorp, an attention seeker of great standing ,  is petulantly  drowning out the stereo with  heavy metal  grooving  sounds  from the  offside rear. Embarassed
 I predict my bank  balance  will be  lighter  by a few  quid  by the end of the week and  we'll  have  to eat the kids  Kiss
 
    Bah! Bumhug

I can't remember if it was on this forum, but your problem reminds me of an exchange I once saw:
 
"I've a high pitched, continuous whining coming from the passenger side."
 
The solution offered was:
 
"Remove female from passenger seat"

I think the final straw was  loading  up  the  boot  with  my sister's  dismantled  brick  fireplace  ( must have weighed  half a ton !)  and rather than have several  trips to the local  council   tip we  loaded  it up  till   the  exhaust  was in danger  of a  severe road scraping. Strange thing is,  it's the  wheel bearing  that was replaced  a few years ago  that  has  failed,  and  the original  9 year old factory  fitted one on the nearside is still OK.
