while my car was up on the ramp at the local garage, i spun both front wheels at the same time but one stop much quicker than the other. that very same wheel also makes a 'thump thump.....' sound everytime i drive. checked wheels for bulges. would a flat spot on the alloy cause this or is it wheels bearings.
 
Hi, yes must agree with the last comment sound like it's in the brake area, if it was the wheel bearing you should sense play in the wheel when jacked up or at least hear noise when spining it. It is only normally slowed down by friction on the brakes.:bannana:
 
It sounds like you have a lazy cylinder.

A flush-through might help. Get your fluid changed and ensure the fluid is flushed through to each wheel.
It’s sound advice to get your fluid changed every two years.
