TSB 40 (Clicking noise from wheel bearing).
Condition: Clicking or clacking noise when maneuvering or parking
Technical Background: Normal driving dynamics may cause microscopic movements between the wheel bearing and wheel bearing housing
Product Solution: --
Service: Using a brush, apply a thin coat of paste (G 052 109 A2) on the wheel bearing housing as shown on the photo.
*Tip: Wheel bearings replaced for this concern will not be reimbursed under warranty.
Seems like it has been fixed but time will tell...Just posting above in case anybody else encounters above problem. Oh and dont be a dumbass like me and remove your spacers prior to having car diagnosed! It will save you heartache, believe me.
Just recently got a slight noise like that. Where is the photo for the TSB? I want to do this myself to my car. Its funny how they add in there that the wheel bearing wont be covered for replacement
