You mean the centre bearing David?
I'm still having the problem... at crawling speeds it feels like my rear passenger side wheel is oval shaped and it causes a ticking at each revolution
This creates a vibration at higher speeds which goes through the car, and the god awful knocking sound from the rear end.
I'm absolutely certain there's nothing wrong with the wheel, and if it where wheel balance it wouldnt be doing it at snail speed... but I will get it checked out just to satisfy that curiosity.
Other than that, the new owner-to-be is aware of the problem and is aware that he is buying the car 'as is'. I said I'd try fixing it, but if I couldnt then its up to him (which he is ok with)... see how I go.
