I don't think your issue is a bearing issue. if you hear it only when you turn or parking, it sounds more like a linkage issue in the suspension i.e. tirerod etc.. if its a bearing you would hear it constantly as soon as you pick up speed

thanks lebahawk. i think you are right.

Ok finally done, replaced the front left bearing and the hub, It was a great learning experience to change it took me a couple days because the dealer did not have the hub in stock so had to wait for the following day to complete but most important that the noise is gone :) Battery went dead as well so had to replaced the battery also. Truck is back on the road now !

Thanks for the input:thumbup: |
You can normally diagnose a bearing by going around a corner. The tone or pitch of the noise will change when doing this as the weight of the truck will move to the other side of the car.

Thats great input which will give confidence to many here to do the same job. I have mates that work for BMW dealer and even they have difficulty even with specific tools and they also have to hammer it. So ,if anyone is going to have to hammer anything in my X,I prefer to be me;) Again ,thanks for sharing:thumbup: |
