    i've had wheel bearing type noises before especially on Astra's fitted with Continental Eco tyres, so i'm thinking is it the tyres at fault rather than the bearings or abs.

    Tyre pressures are also important with abs systems (Vectra in the other day with abs fault, n/s/r wheel speed sensor fault which was a flat tyre 10 psi).

    I've noticed before with some Continental tyres that the inner edges wear out of shape and cause a strange noise, i've spoken to tyre manufacturer and they say its shock absorber problem but its on every Astra i've worked on with this type of tyre.
