Wheel bearings?
 
Today I feel like a complete novice when it comes to cars even with my experience lol.

I had a suspected wheel bearing failure, which stopped us coming to the meet yesterday, which we were completely hacked off about, so took the car to my mate richard to look at and how do you think I feel now when after a lot of looking and moving and head scratching it turned out to be a stone caught behind the disc and shield thingy. :brickwall: :cuckoo:

Had six subarus and never had this before on any car, so feeling pretty dumb and stupid at the moment but bloody relieved as only cost me a drink, but will not replace the gutted feeling of missing the first meet.

See you all soon.
