Over the weekend I had a vibration with a slight grinding noise that was intermittent. Changed the brake pads as that's what we thought the grinding/scratching noise was. Ended up being a collapsed wheel bearing, same symptoms as you have described. Lucky we caught it when we did as they were in a bad way.

Did you replace the bearings yourself? What was involved?

My Terry is vibrating now at much lower speeds. I swear it's a bearing but I cant feel any movement in the wheels when jacked up. Front left does sound average when spinning it while it's on jack stands, and I can hear a strange squeek every now and then when driving at low speeds.

Yeah me and 2 mates done it. Never again though lol. It's best you have a hydraulic press handy also a bearing puller or if you're able to drop it to a shop with these tools it makes the job a lot easier. Took us near 10 hours, with the right tools it'd be a 3 hour job max

Yeah it was a *beep* of a job lol.

Repco had them in stock, get this though. Bearing and hub was $157 or bearing alone $230!! Wtf? I got bearing n hub obviously. Lol

Just done my engine mounts the other day. Vibration gone!! So stoked, it was a terrible feeling to have throughout the car.

Can you chuck up a pic of the old engine mounts mate?

Were they rooted or just looking scabby?

Threw em out unfortunately sorry. The only visual problem was the very top where the bolt is, the rubber around it was shagged out.
