Stone in stone guard, bent stone guard, brake pads getting towards the end of their life(if the noise stops if you gently brake when it happens then that will point to the pads)

Stone stuck behind the front brake stone shield
They are about as much use as a chocolate tea pot and you might as well remove them, 10 minute job per side.

Wheel bearing worn and or stub axle - get it looked at asap. My neighbour had similair symptoms on his 90 a couple of weeks ago and luckily got it fixed before it caused an accident.

Nah, its not a stone guys, its been like it for a while and I wash it and check it over nearly as much as Zag LOL
I'm thinking it is a wheel bearing / stub axle issue and was just wondering if there was a common known problem so I can point the stealers in the right direction! |
