    Anyone ever have a wheel bearing squeek at random times? Just wondering. I'm wondering if this maybe my problem. They have 160k miles on them but they seem tight too... LMK

    I don't replace wheel bearings until they make a god-awful sound or the ABS light comes on. A little squeak I don't worry about.

    Could be something other than a bearing.

    well its on the rear and it happens in rotation so that almost has to be it. Probably end up replacing them. I can't stand squeaking noises...

    Does it vibrate? If so, replace them. If theyre sqeeking, dont worry. Its when they start to vibrate that you should worry.

    I believe my front left just started making noise yesterday. It makes a bad growling/humming noise and gets louder as I accellerate. I wouldn't leave them either, the noise would drive me crazy!
