Cool, the rattling sound is also gone. It was actually a loose brake hose!

We'll get the other bits fixed at a suspension place then. What prices would be acceptable?

Alrighty, took it to the mechanic and he said it was a wheel bearing and there are some other problems wrong with the suspension.

Do these quotes sound right?

LHF wheel bearing 550
strut top rubber 520
front control arm bushes 490

That's in Australian dollars, so in USD it's probably 525, 50, 460 ...

I'm thinking a wheel bearing, but first I have some questions.

-Does it increase with road speed, and go away if the transmission is dropped into neutral while moving?
-Does it change noise/pitch if you swerve hard to one side at decent speed?

Sorry guys, I've been moved interstate for a month ...

Can't say off the top of my head but probably whenever the dealer last prompted us to. I don't think it's that though, as the suspension does seem to be a bit off on that particular side

Hi Everyone

01 2.4 V70 from Australia.

For a few months now the right front wheel is starting to make a sound which is sort've WHIRRING. Like a low WOO WOO WOO as the wheel spins. It also make a distinctive sound that sounds like something is dragging along the ground. Very strange

Anyone have ...

nice one! thanks

Gotta change my rear lights because they have a hairline crack in them. I think it's letting little bits of water in..

We had some issues with the transmission on our 01 2.4T and ended up getting the transmission replaced. I think I read somewhere that is was common in a lot of Australian v70s
