both my xc bikes have got problems with the freehubs.
The Shimano M475 hub has got some play in the free hub & the Formula hub has got noisy bearings in the freehub. Can these be serviced or repaired or is it new wheel time?

    Most people get a new hub complete (so new axle, cones bearings etc) and do a hub rebuild when they swap the freehub, often cheaper than getting a freehub and a few other bits anyway....
