dubnutz 0 Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 hi all am really gutted... went to go to the rolling road day yes2day but 5miles up the road and she started rubbin on the rear drivers side wheel like constantly... i was due to do the bearing but i hadn't got around to it (i had replaced one about 3 weeks before)anyway under closer inspection the wheel is virtually touchin on the drivers side arch yet i can get my fingers between the wheel and arch on the passenger side ( which it wasnt like before)any1 with any ideas as to wot it could be? i'm hopin its mayb the bearin collapsed and that it hasn't caused any damagei dont think it'll be the coiovers cos i dont think they are that old so i was also wonderin about either the rear axle bushes (these arent that old either accordin to the receipts i got with the car) or maybe the strut top mounthope some1 can help i'm missin the infectious sound of the big vr already! also any ideas cheapest place for a water pump think thats starin to go aswell...

xyber 1 Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 only thing to do by the sound of it is take the wheel off and have a good poke around, sounds like time for a rebuild, sounds like a bush or even a bolt has failed and the whole rear axle has shifted.Check the trailing arm mounting points on each side for play or anything obvious Link to post Share on other sites
