CaPRiCEx383 Posted February 22, 2011 Report Share Posted February 22, 2011 Lift it up and shake the tire. Thats how i found out which one it was on my 02 maxima. The one that wobbles is the problem.

mxer111 Posted February 22, 2011 Report Share Posted February 22, 2011 Just because the wheel doesnt "wooble" doesnt mean the wheel bearing isnt going.

alphasig293 Posted February 22, 2011 Report Share Posted February 22, 2011 Well if u turn right n it gets worse its your left hub assembly or wheel bearing n if u turn left n it gets worse its you right side, what is happening is when u turn one way or the other u put pressure on the other side, that's usually a simple way to determine which side it is, if u have any questions pm me anytime Quote 2005 Lariat F-150 On 30 inch DUBS 6 Crossfire XS-V2 18's 2 Cactus 12k's, 1 Cactus 1000, 1 sundown 100.4 12 - 6.5 Crescendo mids and 4 Crescendo supertweets SMD 340 alt, Mechman 270 alt 7 NSB 170 batterys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well check your lug nuts lol but im guessing cv. wheel bearing tends to howl and moan before you loose a wheel. bent cv under hard excel makes quite a ruckus.... i say cv Quote Looking for a CRX to get back in the game.
