​How to Find Car Wheel Bearing Noise

2023-11-18

In fact, there are many interfaces on our cars, and there are many bearings at the interfaces. These places are not noticed by everyone. But they play a very important role in our lives. Once something breaks down, the entire car will not be in good condition. When they start to fail, car wheel bearings often make a whining sound that you can feel through the steering wheel or the car's chassis. It is a very bad thing to encounter noise from car wheel hub bearings, which makes us need to locate the problem as soon as possible. We together look.




The following are the specific methods:


1. Find a large, empty parking lot and drive and turn in the parking lot at a speed of 45 mph.


2. Apply your brakes as if you were having a panic attack and stopped. The front of the car will plummet, shifting weight to the front and putting more pressure on the bearings. Listen to the sound of your axle at this time, if it's turned up in volume then you have a bad front bearing. If it gets quieter or disappears, then you have a bad rear bearing.


3. Drive the car in a circle at 45 mph, turning clockwise first. Your driver's side will bear the weight of the car. If the bearing noise becomes loud, a bad bearing is in the driver's seat. Then repeat again in the needle direction, if the bearing noise becomes louder, the bad bearing is on the passenger side.


4. If you notice an increase in bearing noise or vibration, then the bad bearing is on the front passenger side. If the noise of the bearing increases when braking and reducing, then the bad bearing is on the rear wheel driver's side.
