Hey /o/ my 2004 passat is having some front end issues that i cant figure out.

When im decelerating the steering wheel starts wobbling and shaking really bad, I know its coming from the front drivers side wheel because it starts making a really bad rubbing noise.

Would anyone have an idea as to what it might be? I was thinking a control arm bearing or wheel bearing but im not sure.

I got the calipers and pads replaced in october.

wheel alignment

Either you need an alignment bad or the disc rotor is warped

>>14137835
But not the rotors?

Uneven or a warped caliper could cause it, check that first.

Just recently a buddy of mine had the same sort of thing with his wheels but it was all the time, and after replacing the wheel bearings it was good.

I dont think its an alignment as it doesnt pull to the left all the time only when its making the noise.

If you have a jack and a breaker bar, just check yourself

Decelerating or braking?

If the former then the most likely cause is shot bushes, if the latter cheap ass disc has warped.
