The best practice is to replace all four wheel bearings at the same time or at the very least should be replaced in pairs, ie front or rear. This ensures that all four bearings are the same age and have been through the same amount of wear and tear. Additionally, if one wheel bearing needs to be replaced, the other three are likely to need replacement fairly soon. You can, of course, choose to replace one at a time but it’s not advisable and is often not the most economical choice in the long run.

A front wheel bearing replacement on average takes just over 1 hour, but can take anywhere from under 1 hour to 2 hours. This is because replacing front wheel bearings tends to be a bit more time-consuming than replacing rear wheel bearings as it may require removal and reassembly of additional car parts. A rear wheel bearing replacement takes on average under 1 hour but can range from under 1 hour to 2 hours.

The 566 Letter will state how you should submit your documents. Typically the IRS will accept documents through mail or via fax. Email or online document submission isn’t currently allowed.

Wheel bearings are important components of a car's suspension system. They allow the wheels to rotate smoothly and with little friction. Wheel bearings typically last around 80,000 miles, but they can start to wear down sooner if the car is driven in harsh conditions or if the suspension is not maintained and serviced as needed.

Your location can also be a key factor in determining the price of a wheel bearing replacement. For example, average hourly labour rates and demand in cities like London is around £50-£100 while in towns with lower demand, the labour rates can range from £35-£50. The type of mechanic, for example, a mobile mechanic vs a dealership garage technician can also affect the total cost of a wheel bearing replacement.

When the IRS’s software identifies a tax return for audit, a 566 Letter is sent to the taxpayer. The letter will let you know which tax year they selected and which specific item is under correspondence audit.

The vehicle may also feel like it is shaking, the noise may also vary in pitch as you turn the steering and travel around corners.

You should keep all your documents, receipts, reports, and forms you used to complete your tax return for at least three years after you file. This is how long the IRS has to audit your return. But if they find substantial errors on your return, they can go back and look at six years of tax returns. A good rule of thumb is to keep all your tax documents for at least six years.

If a wheel bearing starts to fail, it will make a grinding or growling noise while the vehicle is in motion. This noise will usually get louder as the bearing wears down. In some cases, the noise can be similar to that of brakes grinding. Once a wheel bearing fails, it must be replaced as soon as possible to avoid further damage to the suspension system.

Rarely is an entire tax return under audit. Generally, the Internal Revenue Service is looking at specific items like W-2 wages, business income, automobile expenses, or tax credits. And the 566 Letter will let you know which specific items were selected from your individual tax return.

For example, you filed as head of household last year for the first time when you’ve historically filed as Single and the 566 Letter states this is the area of your tax return that’s under audit. Form 886-H-HOH should be included with the 566 Letter. Form 886-H-HOH will detail the exact documents you’ll need to submit in order to prove you qualify for the head of household filing status.

The average cost of replacing a wheel bearing is £175, with prices ranging from £120 and £300. The cost will vary depending on whether the front or rear or if all of the wheel bearings need replacing. In some cases, if the faulty wheel bearings have caused additional damage to other parts of the suspension or transmission, then the necessary parts will need to be replaced which could affect the overall cost of the repair. The exact price of the wheel bearing replacement depends largely on your car and the parts recommended by the manufacturer.

If you receive response #2, don’t worry. You have the right to fully understand why the IRS is making changes to your tax return. If you don’t or if you feel the documents you provided were adequate, you may need to call the phone number at the top of the letter. Speaking to an IRS employee or tax professional may help shed light on the proposed adjustments, which can be difficult to do in a letter.
