FG2 with Bad Ball Bearing!!??

FG2cIvIc · 11-09-2009, 11:01 AM

Anyone here on 8th ever experienced a bad ballbearing on there car? About 2 weeks ago i recently nocticed a light grindding sound when i speed up to about 40 ish. To my knowledge im guessing it couldbe a ball bearing going bas, but i could be wrong. Any feedback on this one? I wanna find the source of the problem and fix it before it gets anyworse. I have 46K miles on my car and its an 07. If it is the ball bearing how much would each side cost? Sounds like its coming from the front.

thanks guy =]

thnx man.. it helped out alot. the thing is how so i narrow it down to which one is bad? i cant really tell now since my friend road in the back and said he hears it from the back but im thinking its from the front.

did you ever have the ABS recall performed? If so start with that one. If not just start where you think the noise is coming from. Pull the wheel off, then pull the caliper off. Spin the hub and if you hear ANY noise that's the one.

It is possible that more than one is bad...
