Roaring noise from front end
 
I have an r53 with the full cooper works, love the car, this last week i have noticed a strange kind of roaring noise coming from the front end, its only whilst im driving, it almost sounds like theres a storm blowing under the bonnett? any ideas before i take it to the garage and they charge me a fortune going through th process of elimination and replacing everything they can think of! :eek:

Might be a bearing hub. Look at the back and see if there is rust coming out of the back.

Probably a front wheel bearing really simple fix 4 bolts hold it on it’s not pressed in
