It's the wheels bearing.. the one that got replaced in my service!! got to take it back.. so much effort!

Turns out the CV boots was missing a tie and the black grease stuff had started coming out of it..

It's okay though, I think I can get someone to pick it up for me and I can collect it when I come to England :)

Haha thanks everyone!

It's a long story firefox but you asked :)
Basically, when I turned 17 (September 2009) I got my provisional and in october my dad got me a car, which is pretty much his now seeing as he drives it every day!..
I passed my theory in November 2009 and then after that nothing happened because no one would take me out in my car because they didn't have time and so I was promised lessons which never happened either. I renewed my provision...

but THEN last Christmas, my sister paid for some lessons for me because they came up on this deal site thing called quidsin. I didn't book them until February but 1 more provisional and many, many driving lessons later, I passed!
It was a good job I did though because my provisional expires in 2 days!! haha.. I think if i had to pay for one more driving lesson I would've keeled over! :)
