Surely any small issue gets exaggerated, the more load. I'd guess it's one or more bush kit knackered, is it one side only?

It can't be anything wrong with the car if there's no issues with the standard set up.

Sounds like bad luck with your choice of mods.

Ive looked on other forums and it seems to be a common problem front left bearing going at low miles. All around 20-30k exactly the same as mine. Booked into dealership friday hopefully it will be covered under warrenty because i don't see how this has happened when i have done no different than any of my freinds with the same cars, if anything i have done nothing too my car in comparison. It's serviced and maintained to a high standerd always.

I had a rear wheel bearing replaced earlier this year though quite likely due to pothole damage since both wheels on that side were buckled...

Bugger - coming up to 20k and I've run over half of those on lowered suspension and aftermarket 19s lol. Hopefully I miss out on the wheel baring replacement joy!
