If only during turning, that sounds like a suspension or balljoint issue, maybe? I'd suggest it might be a CV joint, but the i-Miev's aren't front wheel drive. If you had a wheel bearing starting to go, you'd notice it sounds like a hum that begins at a certain speed, and then starts sounding...

Hello, I traded in my 2012 i-Miev back in July, and have a few new (or like new) parts to sell. Can: OEM vacuum pump - practically new. I hooked it up and it worked amazing - so amazing that it blew my rusted vac lines. I had the brake recall and decided to do the new pump myself bc the...

Thank you for the reply, and that's what I think - it's a safety recall, IT HAS TO BE DONE. I have no issue paying for any parts ($200 or so) beyond the vac pump as the car has saved us so much in maintenance and fuel costs over the 5 years of ownership - give and take, and I'll gladly give a...

I'm in Clarington, and the dealership (that has a tech trained for iMievs) is in Ajax. It was either there, or Peterborough. Ajax is closer. I ran into the issue that others encountered for recalls - distance to the dealership vs. range of the iMiev.

Hello, The vacuum pump recall still needs to be done on my 2012 iMiev - I got the notice back in Feb 2020 but delayed everything because of COVID. Haven't had any braking issues this entire time... In February 2022 I took it in to have the vac pump and the airbag recall done - airbag recall...

What your describing sounds like a steering linkage/joint, or maybe a worn ball-joint. Bearings will sound like you have a jet engine under the hood - it will roar/hum louder the faster you drive. Mine started getting audible around the 50KM mark, and got worse the faster I went - there was no...

Sorry, i haven't been on here in quite a while. I replaced the driver's side earlier on this year (Jan 2020). Getting the hub and bearing out is straight-forward - follow the instructions from the service manual on mmc-manuals.ru. The issue is getting the new bearing back on - you will need a...

Ok. this is both exciting and scary at the same time. I have done a little more research on YouTube and found a few videos that are similar to how I would approach this without a shop press. I'll try posting the process in the next week or so, just waiting on the parts and tools to arrive this week.

Hello, My 2012 i-Miev (65,000kms) front wheel bearing(s) are going - it makes the jet engine (roar) sound as speed increases. I am going to repair both at the same time for peace of mind, and while I have all the tools out. I'll be using the slide hammer kit to remove the hub from bearing, and...
