Can you jack the car at each front corner and give each wheel a tug and spin to check for obvious free play and/or noise? dcb |

Re: Bearing failure or ?
Maybe later today. I'm off to a garage to mount new rubbers and change the wheels altogether.

The alloys, nearer the center where they mount, but not the plastic center caps...

Re: Bearing failure or ?
After changing to summer tires it was obvious that the rear bearings are fried, so I will have them replaced shortly.
Do all SVX share these parts (I ask since there are some difference between USDM and EUDM/Nordic cars)? Wasn't there a clever thread about the packing grease? Now that I have new wheels on I'm also able to actually see the brakes. I just noticed that a pad seem stuck on right front wheel. I didn't check after starting the car, I'm unsure if this is a caliper issue or just the hand and/or parking brake. It was not so on the left side so I assume it's stuck. Could explain the milage, too.
