Passenger side axel bearing or wheel bearing

[Riley_dennnn]

I’m in need of opinion, my 2015 fiesta st has started to make a noise, had a look under the car and noticed an oil/grease leakage. Is on passenger side of Australian model

Has anyone had similar issue and what resolution did you come to, cost and labour etc.

Thanks, any advice appreciated

Looks like a bad seal for sure. The question is whether the seal is the primary cause of the noise. The seal is about $25 USD to replace.

This one does a great job showing how to remove the half shafts.

what kind of noise? any vibrations at speed?

That axle seal is definitely gone, but might not, as stated above, be the only problem.
