On the highway I am experiencing a loud humming noise which seems to be coming from the passenger side front end! The noise doesn't go away when turning either way, and is unnoticable under 60 km/h. Any ideas?

 

i have that noise too. I just turn up the music and voila

 

wheel bearing!
i just had the same problem and replaced it a few days ago... audi charges insane for a bearing kit.... i got mine at autopartsway.ca online for $140 with shipping. sweet.

 

most likely a wheel bearing.

i get mine replaced for about $250 parts and labour. if its really loud humming, almost to a point that it sounds like metal to metal grinding--GET IT REPLACED

 

mine is not wheel bearing though. It's some sort of wind noise for sure from the passenger side.

 

WHATTT you got ripped!! before you replace it let me know because thats just insane!

i just had mine done.. if you want a good site for cheap parts like someting around the..70.00 range for the rear let me know the full details of your car and ill see the price.. thats goin on a 05 quattro am i right?

 

well tell me where in southern Ontario that this ca be done for cheaper please!

 

dono where you can have it done but for the baring its 68 bucks...cant go wrong.

 

again, where can I find that part for such a low price in Canada with free shipping to Barrie?

 

i actually thought $250 was a great deal. I had a quote before that and it was going for $380
