Rear Wheel Bearings?

Post by Subyroo » Sun Dec 20, 2009 5:30 pm

I have droning noise in my 03 XS Forester and from what I can find out on the net it could be the rear wheel bearing/s.

Does anybody know how hard these would be to repair or a rough price from a Repair Shop?

I'll be ringing my normal Service Agent tomorrow to get a 'ball park" quote.
