Wheel Bearing Noise~~Don't Make This Mistake~~QUICK TUTORIAL

Good idea, replace everything so you cannot tell what was wrong in the first place.

He has to pay for that garage somehow. ‘Murica! Thank the good lord for Yelp and google reviews so we can weed out these shady mechanics. You replace ONE part that’s not working, not everything to run up a $17k bill. Hood shame. Also the wheel is supposed to stop like that. Duh.

[@joeldoxtator9804]

Love how you can tell he also replaced the wheel HUB's Zero rust, new and shiny. Someone had trouble diagnosing this one and replaced everything that turns. Or he went ahead and replaced everything with the "Think of the children!" excuse at huge cost to the customer. I think it is the former rather than the latter, as he forgot to explain why this was or wasn't a wheel bearing noise in the video. That seems to be the after thought by making it the video title itself. Wouldn't be hard to bleed test and actuation test the caliper piston and see if the brakes actually needed to be rebuilt. Then test drive to make sure nothing is actually damaged from the locking up.

[@victorlockett816]

Yeh this video is pretty suspect. Why didn't he just pull the pads out and show it spinning freely with no noise if it wasn't bearing, which he obviously replaced as well?. Poor customer must of paid $1500+ for this replace absolutely everything in pairs job

[@GregW]

Haha right? He complains about people not knowing what the heck they’re doing, but he didn’t diagnose anything at all. Just threw parts at it.

[@Enpassantful]

He didn’t need to imo, the cost of labour checking everything will outweigh the cost of doing the whole job. Anyway you should be able to do jobs like that yourself.

[@24revealer]

My guess it was a collapsed brake hose. I've had this happen where it mounts on the strut gets rusty and closes off the hose. It will allow pressure on the caliper, but won't allow it to release. It's too bad be didn't diagnose the true problem, but this seems to be what mechanics do, just change everything they can and charge their flat rate for each thing, I stopped going to a mechanic years ago as they applied the change everything method and then there always seemed to be something else go wrong shortly after.... Very suspicious indeed.

[@ianconley6673]

The diag would be more than the actual job itself?? After replacing calipers, rotors, prolly pads, and hub bearings​? That is absolutely insane logic 😂😂😂@@Enpassantful

[@snoopstp4189]

The best way I have found to detect a bad wheel bearing is quickly check the temperature of the hub after driving, bad bearings are going to heat up and will be considerably hotter than the normal(good) bearings on the car or truck. A visual inspection (plus lack of noise) should be sufficient to understand it's not a braking issue.

[@ScottWConvid19]

Great idea, thanks for sharing! 👍🏼

[@foxmulder7616]

Good thinking!! Gonna try it.

[@krangkoopa]

Solid, solid advice. Currently replacing a wheel bearing, noticed that symptom months ago (also, the entire rotor looked more rusted than the other because of the insane heat cycles after driving), bearing was about 95% seized. Sure enough the inside of the hub was blue from the heat

[@boots7859]

Outstanding suggestion!!!! I've got one of those laser thermometers we use in the kitchen for $15-20. Think I'll take the 06 Murano 167K miles out tomorrow morning for a 10 min drive then see which of the front bearings comes back hotter.

I know this doesn’t have to do with the problem specifically in this video, but for someone else out there that this may help. I just put three brand new alternators from autozone on my wife’s car before I got a good one. And every time I took it back to autozones it tested fine on their machine. From my understanding the machine doesn’t draw power long enough for it to have shown the issue, which is why it never caught it. Apparently it’s a common issue with autozone. So for anyone else out there, never assume your brand new parts will work out the box.

I'm a retired OEM Automotive Engineer with 42 years of experience (BSME, MSME). On my car, I had the caliper stick on my front left disc brake like in this video. On both sides, I put on brand new OEM rotors and pads which were from Bosch. I put brand new OEM calipers on with new banjo bolts and copper gaskets. I inspected the original brake lines carefully and they were fine, I then bled the complete system and put in all new fluid. After that my car with 80K miles is like new. I NEVER use remanufactured or off brand parts! I have had nothing but headaches with these. These parts and service are inexpensive and a good insurance policy for safety.

One of my friends had a similar issue / noise in the rear of his Chrysler. His dad worked on it once before giving the car to his son, my buddy who again did the brakes but had the one rear wheel wear the brake pads prematurely. The issue was the flex line which looked OK on the outside. He replaced it and resolved the issue. We cut the old line in half and it was collapsing internally, acting like a check valve and keeping the brake engaged after your foot left the pedal.

[@williamvaughn2938]

Cool way to check for a collapsed line.... Raise vehicle, either both front, or both rear, or all 4... Apply brake, hold for 30 seconds, engine off. Get out and try to spin each airborne wheel. ... the one that takes a lot of effort to spin has a collapsed line, if not a sticky caliper.

Been working in my cars for over 27yrs and I’ve never ever heard that u shud change ur brake lines while doing a brake job. I’m Not claiming to know everything, but that sounds a bit ridiculous.

[@AutoRepairTips757]

this was not a diagnose and repair video, but more on the lines of what to look for.when i diagnosed this vehicle the calipers did not move freely, so i went through the brake system and check it over to make sure i didn't miss anything. my family has been in automotive for 86 years at the same location, ive been there 44 years. and over the years i have learned to make sure you check everything. when i looked at the brake fluid it was BLACK and 99.99% of the the time thats from the rubber brake lines coming apart on the inside. so if you put new calipers on your just masking the PROBLEM, because the contaminated fluid will ruin the new calipers and the wont let them open and close correctly. and we have been in one location that long because we treat people with honesty. not by padding the bill.

My experience with two new “bad” calipers is they’ve been installed on the wrong side. Most vehicles can have a caliper installed on either side but the bleeder MUST be mounted at the top.

So pads need replaced this time again - and again in left/right pairs. Rotors: since previous time wasn’t done properly, so he’s replacing them both. Again, left right pair. Brake hose -> this is the ONLY component where I have my reservations. Granted, he tried to record that footage using another hand held GoPro. He just didn’t edit-in that part during post-production. So fine, I can take his words for it, that the hoses are old, brittle, etc. That said, you’re totally right: the audience who are not skilled in evaluating these things, are exactly the target audience wishing to learn something from the video.

Great write up. Thank you for sharing it amazes me how much automotive issues are hidden. An yes you do need to beware. All we have is each other's shared experience because the manufacturing industry is a joke. I searched and searched for good info on my wheel lug nuts. There was conflicting information on size of socket to use first for the actual spindle nut then the lug nuts because it seemed mechanics had been careless using a bigger socket because lug nut became distorted. There was info talking about 2 different sizes for front and back which led me to beleive it should have went into haynes auto repair book. Cone to find out what I thought was a stripped bolt lug nut was a manufacturing idiotic thing for looks. The top part of lug nut is just a cap the mid lip if for hub cap to stay on keeping you with that lug nut but underneath that cap of lug nut they put an aluminum sheeth which after time becomes distorted slides out of place indicating a larger socket size which rounds of the 6 pt sides making proper socket size appear to small. So lug nuts ho back n forth while still tight feeling all the whi l e loose.

No need to replace the calipers when doing brakes and the rotors it just depends. I have never had to replace a caliper but have had to replace a slide pin where the boot failed and it was seized. I do know calipers can get stuck but they are pretty reliable.

[@Mike_The_Hog_A_Nator]

I got a 02' Blazer ZR2 & had bearing noise. 3 shops told me it was a wheel bearing. I changed wheel bearing Hubs on front & Rear. Turns out, it's the Pinion bearing. Everything is tight, no play in the yoke, no leaks but it screams like a wheel bearing! It's my Outer Bearing closest to the Yoke.

[@AutoRepairTips757]

A good way to check that is with a thermal imager. They’re pretty inexpensive on Amazon and drive it and then see where the hotspots are. That will tell you if it’s a wheel bearing or not.

[@realtalk7547]

If you want to spend the extra money thats fine , but so ofter the slide grooves for the pads are too tight and you just need to slightly machine the ears on the pads with a grinder and it frees them up. The problem is that they tighten on the rotors with use and then won’t release is all. Does not hurt to try that first and save hundreds. Don’t be guilted into the extra expense. Be safe , but do your thing and don’t over grind. It’s a pad manufacture problem.

[@joeldoxtator9804]

This happens all the time with caliper boots. The tolerances are so tight that any dirt and rust will not allow the pad to actuate and lead to pad noise. You are actually far better off taking a file to the boot channels where you place the clips. Clean those channels up and you should have no issues. Also, that noise was the wheel bearing not the pads on the caliper. I don't know why he didn't explain this, but you can clearly see that he also replaced the wheel bearings. Zero rust on those wheel hubs in the after shot.

One side was metal on metal, so I had to quickly fix them, but I'll look at my calipers instead of throwing a bearing at it.

[@rickconstant6106]

If the pads had worn down to the metal, you definitely need to replace the discs (rotors) as well, otherwise you are just destroying a new set of pads, and you'll never have properly functioning brakes. The simple rule should be, inspect condition and check operation of all the components, and take whatever action is necessary before reassembly.

Unless the line is leaking, or brake piston seized (both of which can be checked, piston can be rebuilt), it's just the pins. Both sides don't need to be done at the same time. Run up the bill, parts canon, on full display.

[@RsRj-qd2cg]

Nah, that is so obviously not a hub bearing problem. The bad hub bearing noise is more of a whirring or howling that happens at around 30-50mph. You cannot hear it from outside the car, but inside you will both hear and feel it. Outside, at 45mph the normal tire/engine/general car sounds will mask the bad bearing noise. Then you confirm it by testing for play in the wheel while jacked, like in this video. Unless the bearing is super messed up, then there'll be metal on metal grinding at any speed. But total failure is not required to need a new hub bearing. You can also hear the sound by spinning it while the car is jacked, because the other noises won't mask it. The people who make this mistake have never heard what a bad hub bearing sounds like. Once you've heard it, you won't forget it. I didn't know what the sound was at the beginning of this video, but I could tell it was not hub bearing.

Rotors and pads had to be replaced no matter what. Calipers were probably original and worn out, and the brake hoses being original too should also be replaced. This is something that should be done because you don't want to put on new hardware and something else goes wrong because basically the hoses and calipers are junk when they get old.

[@VintageCars999]

Also if you replace calipers, check to see how old those hoses are, if you're not sure just replace them. I had a shop replace everything because the hardlines rusted out and they didn't replace the rubber lines. So now i gotta replace everything again because aftermarket calipers bleeder screws seize up forcing you to buy new calipers. For now i have extra pads i toss on until i scrape the money to replace everything and ill have to find out what i need to do to get the bleeders to work all the time with the new calipers.

I'm wondering if fouled fluid in the system caused that next set of calipers to seize.

[@loganday1104]

The following is for all the "experts" on here ragging on this guy. First, he absolutely explained why it wasn't a wheel bearing. He checked each tire for side to side and up and down play. Which is how you check for a bad wheel bearing. Second, he explained that the brake lines were corroded, therefore most likely not moving brake fluid like they should causing uneven wear to the pads and rotor. Third, he explained that on vehicles, it's best to replace things in pairs, which is absolutely correct even though it sucks. Piecing together break systems costs in the long run. Wheel bearings and break systems are complete necessities on a vehicle, and failure from either can have some seriously bad results. So he's not lying when he says it's serious. I will agree that there are a lot of mechanics out there that are hacks who overcharge. The ones that are good, however, deserve to make a good living for their skill, knowledge, experience, and hard work. Most peoples lives depend heavily on their vehicles so yall should really think twice before slandering someone. My .02 take it or leave it.

I’m a mechanic myself and when you talk about replacing everything as a unit, that’s not necessary! Unless there are some major and I mean major issues. Brake lines only need to be replaced if they are severely damaged and torn up. If they are arrested like you mentioned then yes, I would make a recommendation to have those changed. When it comes to the calipers, a thorough inspection of the calipers is needed. You should have to change your brakes 3 or maybe 4 times before your calipers need to be replaced. Otherwise, if you’re replacing everything at once, you are charging the customer more than what they should actually be paying and that would make me skeptical on coming to see you as a mechanic.

Which eventually turns to having to replace rotors, calipers, studs, lugs and lugnut’s, replacing the rims and ultimately the tires. To a couple of months no noises. To a rumble but not as loud. But cant hear it when I am #speeding to when i brake I pull to the passenger side of the road where I can almost make a turn in my short bed super cab and make a right turn handsfree. 😮 to rear passenger #4x4 have groves but also noticeably groves that go up and down, and also heat groves going around the disk. And the front drivers side have diagonal grinding marks bigger then the width of the pre drilled out rotors. To a none stop squeaky sounds in slower speeds but also while turning. Also real passenger side has the brake pads un-even wear differences between the outer most pad and also the inner pad. I don’t really drive a lot. #mile consumption’s fifteen #thousand range. Only had #two oil changes this year. Had red calipers but had to drop down to basic parts. Long story never worked on a truck before. My friend gets annoyed at me sometimes. But learned a lot since buying it from a dealer for at least five or six under market value. Had to get expanded steel on top of inch thick steel grates. And carpet rugs from local businesses entrances. Soon going to remove the bed after this appointment tomorrow with the professionals 😅it probably cost me what actual market valuation is. But you know what? This is my first diesel engine truck. The #saltbelt #rust #f250 #self taught welding. #eyeprotection wont work. You need like bubble thats air tight. Because you can wear a Arborist mask, safety glasses or goggles, or whatever your going to end up getting rust in your #eyes. One brake line feels like no fluid in it. The other feels like there is some fluid but completely different pressure feel in the rear. Hubs and #axleshaftseals in the front passenger side appears to sitting higher off central to where it should be. And in the rear passenger side but the actual shocks sits normal however the rear drivers side sitting crooked. The front passenger lower tie rod appears bent. All the different coupler seals most of them bad. I am guessing only replacing what I could afford to do personally was a bad decision on my part. At least the dealer did all the stuff that my truck is known to have issues with. To probably needing everywhere else except for the rear differential but the rear #driveshaft is leaking, the front passenger caliper got fresh brake fluid. Ik i spilled some oil on my second time of doing a #diesel by myself. How it’s leaking from some little round flat circle some aluminum cast part that sits close to the #60 but its a slow leak not to the point I am leaving oil spills on the pavement. But if as bad as the suspension is looking. Starting to worry 😮what else will the mechanics fine. I mean my #obs2 thing doesn’t work. Well local car parts store couldn’t read it.

Replace calipers, rotors and lines whenever you replace pads?! Not my experience.

If you're in an area with lots of road salt and they;re heavily rusted, sure, they should be replaced proactively, but every time you replace pads? No way.
