Sometimes they can give a wobble noise before the howl. Mine came on after getting all new tires. The heavier new tires were the straw that broke the camel's back and immediately brought on the noise. Naturally since it cane on with new rubber, I was convinced it was from a defective tire and so was my mechanic because we couldn't get any noise or movement on the lift, but it was very loud while driving We rebalanced and rotated the tires. The noise was still coming from the same spot. So I gambled and chaned the bearing. Problem solved. And even though it did not make noise while spinning the wheel on the lift, when we got it out, and spun it on the workbench we heard the grinding. Go figure?

I had a bad bearing in my Camry and it made that noise. Thought it was the front right hub bearing because I hit a curb. Took it to a mechanic. Turns out it was the rear right. Glad I didn’t try to do it myself because when driving it 100% sounded like the noise was in the front. The mechanic did great work for me before. Used a stethoscope and determined it was 100% coming from the rear even though he agreed it sounded like it was in front while driving. If I tried to DIY I would’ve ended up replacing the wrong part!

Over tightening with a impact gun will also set your ABS light on that hub. I found out after 6 months of trying to diagnosis my ABS light. Replaced a CV axle and tightened with a impact gun on the axle nut . Squeezed the axle into the hub and threw off my wheel sensor and tire speed. Lesson learned. Also you should replace your axle nut each time you remove it.

Was starting to hear the "howling" from the front of the truck. Got home and measured the rotor temperatures as close to the axle as practical. Truck was just parked with wheels on the ground. Using a hand held infrared thermometer, driver's side was 90F, passenger side 140F. Wasn't sure if it was binding brake pad or wheel bearing, but I knew which side needed work. Turned out to be wheel bearing.

They were replaced under warranty, but I'm afraid to put them in, I don't want to be doing front hubs every 2500 miles. Probably end up spending more and put in moogs.

Ive had my rear brakes replaced and asked for an inspection to make sure nothing else was needing fixed i was told everything is ok, private mechanic. I've had my back tire fixed and asked for an inspection to make sure everything is ok. Goodyear . Went to Subaru dealership 2x , one for a transmission fix. Got an inspection.. Was given green light , came back a 2nd time cv axle broken , inspection... Green light. This month my car has been in the shop inspected by at least 5. I'm still hearing a howling noise. I know people miss things. But this is not something mechanics would miss. 3,rd time at the dealership and they diagnosed my rear bearings. By this time I'm living in my car due to the money I've had to put in it. I' wish this was an easy diy fix.

Thank you for a great video. My 2018 Hyundai Santa Fe was making noise from front end, so suspected wheel bearings. No wheel wobble, so wondered what was causing the noise. Rotating the suspect wheel did not make much noise, because not many RPM. Jacked all car up and ran engine to turn wheels. The vibration in the strut spring was the deciding factor. No vibration on the good side, but significant on the bad side. Removed the bearing assembly, and then you can tell that it's bad with that grating noise/resistance as you turn it.

I love your videos. I had my CV axles replaced and afterward, I did hear howling noise at high speed, also at 40mph there is sound like a distant helicopter. I believe they probably over torqued the CV Axle nut. I noticed less MPG and the car at hwy speed did not coast like it used to, it slowed quickly when off the gas. So I think my wheel hub/bearing is damaged. Over time it does seem to have improved but not normal. Is it worth loosening and re-torqueing the nut or is the damage done.

2012 Chevy Silverado 1500 5.3l LTZ has a humming noise in the front, so I replaced the driver side hub assembly, but the humming noise is still there. Funny thing is, it sounds like it's coming from the center of the front not where the wheels are. I don't like guessing because that's what I did with the hub assembly. This roaring sound is a constant sound that starts around 20mph and doesn't stop at a higher speed. Is it possible for it to be coming from the front differential or is that out of the question? The truck has 140k miles on it, but it's been treated nice over the years. I've checked all the fluids in the truck also. I've tried to pin point this sound by rolling up my windows and listening to it. It has me puzzled because I thought it was coming from the driver side, but it sort of sounds like its coming from the center of the front wheels. It's one of those traveling sounds. Let me know what you think.
