driving and when i turn the wheel to the left it gets louder. is this a wheel bearing? i did jack the car up and checked the the wheel for play there isn't any. should i replace the wheel bearing? if so how hard is it to change thanks.I have a 2002 hyundai elantra 125000 mi i have a humming noise coming from the passenger side wheel area when?
You definately have all of the symtoms of a wheel bearing before long you will probably see looseness in the bearing on that side!I have a 2002 hyundai elantra 125000 mi i have a humming noise coming from the passenger side wheel area when?
Good possibility that it is a wheel bearing but if it is you will need the assistance of a front end shop because it is a sealed bearing that is pressed into a hub.Take it to a shop to get it diagnosed first and see what they would charge to replace it.

A Wheel bearing on my car is starting to whine (noticeable when going around corners) My question is?
How long before I have to change it. (in miles) I had heard then CAN rumble on for 1000,s of miles.A Wheel bearing on my car is starting to whine (noticeable when going around corners) My question is?
It would be best to change it now,$300 now is better than $500 later!! When a bearing goes bad it can cause damage to other parts.......A Wheel bearing on my car is starting to whine (noticeable when going around corners) My question is?
might not be wheel bearing.Had sim whine on turn n with help drove in lt/rt circle, set stands under eels 2 let the eels be in rd position. With steer n on a turn and a wheel be n hand rotated, whine come from twisted left ft brake bac n plate scuf n brake rotor.
I wouldn't go too long with a bad bearing...when it seizes up, be prepared to replace the whole drivetrain on that side...A Wheel bearing on my car is starting to whine (noticeable when going around corners) My question is?
NOW.A Wheel bearing on my car is starting to whine (noticeable when going around corners) My question is?
The bearing can make noise for a while, but if it builds up enough heat (noise comes from friction and friction causes heat and damage), the inner and/or outer race can weld itsself to the spindle or carrier. It that were to happen, it turns a not too difficult fix into an ugly and expensive one. Procrastination is not good in this case. On the other end, it can rumble for thousands of miles and slowly disentegrate untill that wheel loses control, which could be fatal.A Wheel bearing on my car is starting to whine (noticeable when going around corners) My question is?
It wont pass an MOT like it because the brakes will fail because of it (thats if you dont kill someone first). I had a loose wheel bearing problem with a previous car and because I left it it welded itself to the hub and I had to pay for both.A Wheel bearing on my car is starting to whine (noticeable when going around corners) My question is?
what you have heard is a complete fluke on there part as some cars can go for miles with problems and others just fail straigh away...
it is entirely up to you whether you want to play that risk but when it does break be prepared for gigantic bill that follows, honestly it is not cheap and when it happened to me i just scrapped the car....A Wheel bearing on my car is starting to whine (noticeable when going around corners) My question is?
Why wait to change it? It won't cure itself and you are risking doing even more damage, or even worse, having an accident due to a bearing failure (at worst, your wheel may seize).A Wheel bearing on my car is starting to whine (noticeable when going around corners) My question is?
Time to bite the bullet and get it changed NOW. A couple of hundred dollars spent now could save a thousand later.A Wheel bearing on my car is starting to whine (noticeable when going around corners) My question is?

Wheel bearing 97 Acura cl?
I have a 97 acura CL 2.2 with 100 thousand miles. I recently bought it from someone else so I don't know what has been done and what hasn't. There is a growling noise. It is most noticeable when driving around 20 or 30 miles an hour, but it is noticeable at higher speeds as well. I tried to swerve from side to side to see which side the bearing was on, and the sound doesn't change. Had the car looked at by a couple of mechanics, one checked the wheels for play up and down (12 and 6) and couldn't find much if any.
There is also a clicking noise coming from somewhere when you turn and accelerate. It happens most often when turning left, and sometimes when turning right. Especially when accelerating from a stop and turning left like pulling out onto a road, at about a 45 degree angle.
There isn't any bad vibration, even at freeway speeds. Also it doesnt get better or worse with application of the brakes. I know the back brakes need work, but it doesn't sound like grinding; more of a howling.
I thought halfshafts and wheel bearing. Had firestone diagnose. They said transmission had spun a bearing, and thats where the axel noise was coming from too. I had the transmission rebuilt by a different shop for a lot less money. they said that the bearings in the tranny were good, clutch was burnt up, so rebuilt anyway.
Both the bearing noise, and the clicking noise are back, but at least now my tranny shifts smooth.
What's going on? One halfshaft was fairly new, but I heard a lot of remanufactured halfshafts are junk anyway and fail often. How can i tell which wheel bearing is bad? How can I be sure it's halfshafts? Do wheel bearings sometimes fail and the sound doesn't change when you load or unload the wheels? Help Please!Wheel bearing 97 Acura cl?
ur bearing(hub) is the problem with the bearing noise the half shaft and bearing need to be changed at the same time.halfshaft will get rid of the clicking the bearing will get rid of the noise(change both sides at the same time)

2002 cavalier wheel bearing?
how do you determin which wheel bearing is making noise? when turning to the right the car is quite, when turning left i get alot of bearing noise, i would hate to change the wrong one.2002 cavalier wheel bearing?
jack it up and shake the wheel. if it is bad it should shake.2002 cavalier wheel bearing?
The only absolute test is to check both sides while the wheels are turning using a mechanics stethoscope.
I have found that 85-90% of the time it will be the bearing on the same side to which you are turning when the noise is loudest, on Front wheel drive cars with integrated double roller bearings which are the most common type. Also note that if you a planning on changing the bearing yourself, know that they are press fit bearings in most applications which means that you will need a press to remove the old and install the new bearing.

Hi, Get the car on Stands make sure it is SAFE lift the car about an Inch off the stands spin the wheel it should sound quiet and smooth, if it sounds rough on the turn that wheel is your problem.It sounds as if it is the N/S Bearing.2002 cavalier wheel bearing?
jack the front up and put the car in neutral and spin each tire and you should be able to tell which one is bad.2002 cavalier wheel bearing?
Well..check it yourself or get a mechanic to check, it won't take that long.

How important is a wheel bearing?
i have a wheel bearing passenger side of my s-10 starting to howl. pretty sure its toast. i do small maintenanceon my vehicles, changed a clutch a few years ago on my nissan. can i do this myself without much complication, special tools, and could i mess it upHow important is a wheel bearing?
Not hard to do,but make sure you pack the new bearings with grease.I don't mean rub some grease on them,I mean PACK.If you don't it want be long before they seize and then you will have a problem.How important is a wheel bearing?
I've changed many bearings in my life. If you have decent tools and are not afraid to get the book and follow the directions-go for it.How important is a wheel bearing?
CakeHow important is a wheel bearing?
Get a maintenance manual, your tools and have fun.How important is a wheel bearing?
Yes you can do it. Yes you need a tool that will pack the new bearings with grease (easily and cheaply available at your local auto parts store). Yes you can mess it up. ;-) Just be careful not to over-tighten the nut that holds the bearing in.
Oh, and a wheel bearing is important. Actually, it's critical. I had one go bad and I kept driving on it (I was on a trip and in the middle of nowhere.). The wheel caught fire and burned the vehicle to the ground.
Fix it sooner rather than later though. A bad bearing can damage other components.

Why my car wheels squeak when they turn?
95' Ford Contour 5 speed standard
Left wheel bearing needs to be replaced which i cant do cause of that machine. But when the car star moving slowly it squeaks as the wheels turn. I'm already trying to get my bearing replaced next week sometime but i'm wondering does this have to do with something major that will pretty total my car? I cant replace no driveshaft or no engine of any sort. i payed for what i got and the car was 750 dollars used to get me around where i gotta go. Besides maintenance problems on wear and tear like a wheel bearing, the car is actually a steal. But it squeaks but once i start to get up to like a good 10 miles per hour the noise goes away. How can i fix this? I'm only 19 and realized how poor i am so i been fixing my car on my own which has been saving me lots of money. Too bad i cant change the wheel bearing my self on these fordsWhy my car wheels squeak when they turn?
It seems that your wheel bearings are bad.
Wheel bearings are known to make noise that varies with turns.Why my car wheels squeak when they turn?
serpentine beltWhy my car wheels squeak when they turn?
you neglected to mention the universal joints. (a part of the drive shaft ends. when they go bad they will squeak also but Only when the car is in gear and moving. most don't have a place where you can then grease them, but i have seen replacement universals that came with a grease fitting.
you really should have them checked out. they contain small bearings, when the grease is gone the bearings will rust and possibly fall out. for your own safety have them checked out.
drive shafts have been known to fall out became of them.Why my car wheels squeak when they turn?
check the fan belts to see if they are loose if not check the stearing fluid

Audi A4 Wheel Bearing problem...?
I have a 1999 Audi A4 2.8L V6. A couple of days ago weird clicking noise started coming out of my rear passenger side wheel area. I took it to a mechanic today and he told me it was my wheel bearing and that i need to change it? Can someone tell its the wheel bearing and that it has to be changed just by listening to the noise? Do I really have to get it changed? How much would it cost? the mechanic told me it would take 2 1/2 hours to change it. Is that really such a long process? Can you recommend what kind of wheel bearing I should purchase because they would charge me $130 just for the wheel bearing plus labor while Autozone had a wheel bearing for $70.
I might not know much about cars but that doesn't mean that anyone has the right to make fun of me or my questions. If you dont have a helpful answer then dont respond and keep your jokes to yourself. thanks.Audi A4 Wheel Bearing problem...?
You can usually tell what is wrong just by listening to the noise. It could also be the CV Axles that are going bad.
As for time, that is quite long for changing a wheel bearing. A wheel bearing replacement (for one wheel) usually takes from 45min to 1 hr 30 min.
Regrading what bearing brand you should go with, I would suggest http://mibearings.com they have very good bearings (USA made) at very competitive prices. go to their front page, and fill out the form on the right. I would also mention the price quotes you got for the other companies.
I would not suggest Autozone bearings, they could be made in china. Check with the,Audi A4 Wheel Bearing problem...?
I just had my wheel bearing replaced on my Audi Yesterday!
Yup, that is the noise for a bad wheel bearing. But what you need to figure out is if its coming from the Left Rear tire or the Right Rear tire. This will save time and money!
I bought my wheel bearing at www.blauparts.com
It was $45 for the part. With my mechanic, it took him an hour to replace. But of coarse he has been working on Audi's for 20 years so he can move fast! hah
So go to www.blauparts.com and the wheel bearing for the Audi A4 is only around $45.00
Good luck!bacne treatment advise web design and hosting
