Seems like a constant noise is coming from the back left wheel. Sort of sounds like road noise. thought it might of been the tyres but took it to the tyre guy and he said they were fine. It gets louder as u get faster. like goes up and down with the speed of the car. a few people i have asked said it might be the wheel bearings? Will this be a big job to fix? Anyone shed any light on my situation?

Thanks.

Maybe a mud guard or something is touching the wheel?

It might even be something simple. Check the tyres and see that there isn't anything stuck to them. Paper, sticky take or a rock stuck in the treads will make noises.

You took it to a tyre guy, but no harm in looking at it yourself. I had a friend who had a rock stuck to the tread, she took it to a couple mechanics n tyre places n they couldnt figure it out. Had a quick look, took the rock out n problem was solved. Noise was gone. It's so simple that often the mechanics just overlook it.

run your hand over your back wheel, does it feal like a 50c coin, if so then its the tyre badly flat spotted.

other than that ill go with the masses and say bearing as well.

honda sell them compleate with the hub, makes it real easy to change.
