Turbo R Wheel Bearing

[Truffs]

Dear All,

I have a grumbling wheel bearing on the Turbo R that makes itself heard, especially under braking and acceleration.

My question is can any garage do it as the nearest specialist is about 90 miles? I don't want the stress of driving it like it for long.

Thanks for reading!

Sure, a decent garage can do this - you just need to make sure they are a decent one. Unfortunately, there are so many that are not, even though on the face of it they may seem professional.

Where are you based? I would recommend the place I use just south of Birmingham, Tanworth Garage.

Thanks for that. I will use a local one then. Alas, Birmingham is a long way away. I just wanted to make sure it did not need special tools etc because of the suspension and braking hydraulics.

I don't know about the special tools, but I don't think so.

But you can hire all this stuff from Flying Spares if they need it.
