Hi,
Am new to the forum but hoped that some experienced Audi owners might be able to help me.
My A6 reached its 3rd birthday in January and has done about 35000 miles. I had the front driver side wheel bearing replaced under warranty last May as it had started to make a noise. The same wheel bearing has now gone again, I've only done around 8000 miles on it. Is this a normal thing to happen? Audi garage are suggesting I've caused it myself but 2 bearings within a year seems excessive, I'm a careful driver. I have been told that I must have hit a pothole, my tyre is absolutely fine though and potholes are usually on the left hand side of the road!
Am loathed to pay for a replacement bearing and suspect I am being fobbed off!
Have any other Owners experienced similar with a wheel bearing?
Thanks!
