As above on a hdi 2.0 turbo. Noise starts at about 20 mph, no steering wheel vibration, seems to be from right hand side and strangely seems quieter when it's cooler ie in the morning. 0nly makes a noise when driving straight, disappears when turning left or right. Had a quick look underneath nothing seems obviously amiss. Jacked car up and wheel doesn't seem to have any play.Noise still there with clutch engaged/disengaged, ignition switched off, in gear/out of gear. Is this likely to be a wheel bearing and what is the the going rate for replacement at a quick fit type place.
Thanks in advance

The wheel bearing would be a good place to start. As for costs, it depends on the brand of wheel bearing kit whether it be a genuine part supplied from a main dealer or a SNR part from eurocarparts etc. You should pay around £40 however you could find it cheaper.
Factor in at most an hours labour at £40 + vat and you would be there or there abouts.
I would advise you get it confirmed whatever the problem as the longer it's left, the worse it usually gets. If it is a wheel bearing the last thing you want is it collapsing and causing further damage.0 -
I had a droning noise similar to yours. Mine only happens when the wife is in the passenger seat....Je suis sabot...0
