    Can make the noise you describe and is easy to fix.

    If its a wheel bearing the noise should grow or weaken as you load up the bearings. Try some slaloning or cornering and see if the noise changes.
    Yup, turns out you were right about the scalloping!!!!
    Got it checked out during my service, and long story short, it turns out I need 4 new tyres now.
    Just wondering what tyres some of you have on your cars?
    I’m looking for quieter tyres than my current (eagle f1s), and am looking at the yokohama c drives at the moment...still researching though.
    Does anyone have any recommendations? i know jack about tyres.

    Cheers guys!!

    Oh.. it's a pity, new tyres now => goodbye ecu mod… *sigh*
    for a month at least.
