The wheel bearings that set the rear wheels turning are very heavily loaded, which causes a wheel bearing to break or wear out.

When should a wheel bearing be replaced? When a wheel bearing is worn, it makes a singing, humming and/or whistling sound. This means a worn wheel bearing is quickly noticed while driving. The noise is heard, for example, in a left-hand bend and not in a right-hand bend, or vice versa. This depends only on how the bearing is loaded at that moment. The wheel bearings are also checked during a technical or service inspection (MOT).
