wheel bearings

cena

how much would it cost for a wheel bearing on a punto mk2. also would a worn bearing be making a funny noise and stop if i press on the barke

you would generally get a hum or a whine from a worn bearing. It will be related to wheel speed only and sometimes may change if you put pressure on the that wheel in a bend etc.

You can get the bearing for 30-35 euro, thats for a Stilo so the Punto should in the same ballpark.

It'll take about 1hr to fit, so if you know the labour rate you can work it out.
