Any time your vehicle is making unusually loud noises it’s safe to assume that something’s not right. Sometimes the culprit is your car’s wheel bearings. Wheel bearing press service, bearings replacement or other services may be required. Read below to learn about symptoms of problematic wheel bearings and replacement services.

The Pro Bleeder Kit includes: 2-qt reservoir tank with hand pump and hose, universal adapter for American and Japanese systems, early American adapter for rectangular reservoirs, and European adapter for most ATE and Tilton Systems. Made in USA.

Let your local Meineke Car Care Center perform a diagnosis and we’ll let you know how we can repair or replace your wheel bearings to get your car back to a healthy state.

Upon completing the service, the technician will take your vehicle for a test drive to check the noise levels and ride quality. If all goes well, you will then have your vehicle returned to you.

Technicians receive ample training to learn how to change wheel bearings correctly. Technicians use heavy-duty tools in the shop, including a large press, to pop the bearings out of the hub. On most vehicles, your technician must remove the tire, rotor and hub to access the bearing mounting point.

How it works: The Power Bleeder™, containing hydraulic fluid, is connected to the fluid reservoir on your vehicle and pressurized with air from a hand pump on top of the unit. When one of the bleed valves on the vehicle is opened, pressurized brake fluid forces air and contamination out of your lines and cylinders - you instantly get all the air out of your system, the first time you bleed! No more bleeding and rebleeding, and no more needing a helper to constantly pump the pedal to get an air-free system!

In many cases, the diagnostic process will quickly pinpoint the front wheel bearings as the cause. Upon confirming the diagnosis, a technician will write up a work order that includes the total cost to replace your wheel bearings.

Your vehicle utilizes a wheel bearing at the hub to allow the tire and rim to smoothly rotate at both low and high speeds. As a rotating part, the wheel bearing's material slowly wears down during usage.

At this point, you must have a qualified technician change out the worn components using a wheel bearing press to restore your vehicle to good working condition and eliminate distressing noises and poor ride quality.

After placing the hub in the press, it takes several minutes to change the wheel bearings. Your new bearings must also be pressed into the hub to seat their rear surface at the correct point.

In order to understand the big picture and repair your vehicle properly, technicians must check wear on a variety of components from tires and brakes to tie rods and control arms to find the source of the noise and vibrations.

At first, bad wheel bearings will start to squeak loudly while you drive. You will know it is time to replace the wheel bearing if the noise is constant, not just when you press the brakes.
