One thing I did notice is when I spin both front wheels when car off the ground they look like they are slightly out of round as if there is a kink in the wheel rim, its not by much maybe 5mm but still its there, maybe that's normal? Anyway will change hubs and see what happens...cheers.
They don’t always necessarily have free play when worn.

My BF didn’t have any free play even with noisy bearings but replacing ghek did fix the issue.
