those r the exact sypmtoms of what my car was doing last year. ended up having both of them replaced. 1 new bearing and 1 new housing. dealer said i had waited so long (the week and half it took me to get an appointment) and the bearing would not come out of the housing. just dont take it to colony ford in meriden, ct. they broke my tierod and cracked me rocker moldings while doing this repair.
