    At least put your 'safety' concerns of the wheel bearing failing in writing prior to the end of the warranty period.

    Good luck

    If your front tyres are low it can sound like a wheel bearing

    I'm sure Vauxhall's head office are aware that the dealers charge for inspecting the vehicle, indeed they probably asked dealers to do that in order to reduce the number of warranty claims.

    Cheers, i think i'm just going to hand it over to Bristol St this time around and ask them to check the bearings. Hopefully i wont end up with any added costs. It will be out of warranty in a few weeks so i'll be using a non-dealership garage going forward.

    So, you're not a Vauxhall Masterfit Service Club member then? If you were, then you would get 50% of an MOT, and up to 25% off servicing and repairs. As yours is coming up to 3 yrs old, I suspect you'll get the 25% and not 15%. I did with mine when it went in for it's 3rd service.

    I would suggest never have an MOT carried out by a main dealer.too many stories of repairs being found that are totally ficticious.

    By all means have the service carried out by them, making use of service club prices, but NEVER the MOT.

    Never had a problem with mine in the 33 years I've been using my local Vauxhall main dealer to MOT my cars.
