Thanks for the info. At first I thought it was a tire problem as I had just put on a new set of tires, and figured maybe a belt had let go - did a quick rotation and realized it wasn't the tire. The noise sounded very much like my tire was made of steel, the noise would be worse as we cornered to the right but die off as we cornered left. New bearing fixed all that, cost of $205. - seems reasonable.

I'm having symptoms now very similar to what you describe, but I don't think it's the wheel bearings. I'm getting a slight to moderate vibration most of the time, particularly at speeds above 50, but very noticeable when I brake. I wish I knew what it was.




Bently...your new symptoms sound like warped rotor(s) to me.

Would the rotors cause a vibration when I'm not braking?
