right thanks to this site i have gained a better understanding of the working of my car and diagnosing problems and even fixing them!, however I'm not always sure if i'm right hence this post
I am getting a whirling noise from front wheels and feedback though the steering wheel as though i've run over a hamster and it's stuck on the wheel (hence only small feddback but increases upoon taking my foot of the accelerator)
my guess is the bearings, but could it be anything else, i know the driveshafts are ok and it's not them, how can i be sure it's the bearings without taking them out?
thanks |

i think you can jack the car up and turn the wheels by hand and see if there is any noise on the suspected one |

sure its not engine mount related?
might even be dodgy mount tilting the engine and straining the shafts. |
