Read on to learn the most common bad wheel bearing symptoms, based on my experience (50 years in the industry) and that of Joe Simes, a National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) certified and Toyota master technician. But first, a little background.

Sometimes it’s a bushing instead of a bearing. Years ago I learned a clever trick for easily removing the old pilot bushing. It might work with pilot bearings.

Interesting. You mean you strike the bolt directly toward the crankshaft, but the bushing the bolt is attached to comes out in the opposite direction? Or do you mean you are hitting the bolt back and forth sideways, which rocks it out? It would never occur to me to hit it in the opposite direction you want it to move.

Depending on the vehicle, you can save hundreds in labor replacing wheel bearings yourself. Most auto parts stores will lend you the specialty tools and equipment needed to replace a wheel bearing.

Friction from a failing wheel bearing produces heat. After driving, without touching the tires or wheels, carefully walk around your vehicle and use a non-touch thermometer to measure if one is hotter than the others.

Simply stated, wheel bearings allow cars and trucks to run smoother and more efficiently by reducing friction and supporting vehicle weight. When they start to fail, you can usually tell.

On modern front- and four-wheel drive cars, wheel bearings are a set of permanently sealed, precisely machined steel ball or straight roller bearings. The balls, or rollers, are encased in a “cage” that supports the bearings, allowing them to rotate freely.

NOTE: Whether you DIY or your mechanic replaces the bearing, always install a new axle hub nut. Most hub nuts are prevailing torque fasteners, used on critical components (like securing axle shafts to hub bearings) where a loose nut could lead to disastrous consequences.

The cage and rollers are held together inside a hardened metal ring called a “race.” The seal keeps grease in and damaging water and debris out. Wheel bearings are installed inside, and secured to, the suspension, either by press fit, bolts or a snap-ring. Once mounted, the wheel bearing rides on the axle shaft, allowing the tire/wheel to spin effortlessly.

You can service or replace tapered wheel bearings yourself. Never reuse any wheel bearing that’s loose, worn, noisy or shows any signs of wear.

Absolutely not. It’s crucial to get bad wheel bearings diagnosed and replaced ASAP. If not, you could lose a wheel or get in an accident.

I’m with @Tester. I use grease from the grease gun to push out pilot bearings all the time. The good part is that it tends to stay in place once you put it there. And yes, @GeorgeSanJose, you strike the bolt towards to crankshaft. You need to fill the void through the pilot bearing hole with grease. The grease doesn’t compress, so the pressure from the bolt going in forces the grease to push against the back of the pilot bearing. I usually need to add more grease to the cavity a couple of times as the bearing works it’s way out. If you ever need to do it, the first time will be a ‘Holy Cow, It Works’ moment.

Unlike unbalanced tires, shaking caused by a bad wheel bearing should be obvious from the side of the car where the bearing is failing.

But sealed wheel bearings are non-serviceable and should never be repaired, only replaced. Even if a pro suggests repairing a bearing, don’t let them. Trying to reuse a damaged wheel bearing can result in an accident and severe injury.

There was a discussion recently concerning a problematic clutch pilot bearing? Where is this part located? What does it do? I know the transmission input shaft goes through some splines in the center of the clutch disc. Is that where the pilot bearing is located? Or is it used to support the end of the transmission input shaft and is located at the center of the flywheel?

According to Simes, a failing wheel bearing will likely produce a soft, faint vibration that’s felt before it’s heard. There may also be a vague rhythmic humming or droning sound that increases over time and with speed.

The average cost to replace a sealed wheel hub bearing is $350 per wheel. However, depending on the make and model, shop labor rate, the cost of the bearing itself and any additional damage, the total could exceed $1,000.

Depends on the car, doesn’t it? Did a clutch this week on a Dakota, removed the flywheel and then changed the pilot in the crank. Some are in the flywheel, some are in the crankshaft, some don’t use one at all.

Ah, so the input shaft goes right through a hole in the flywheel and into the center of the crankshaft, where’s there’s a bearing there to hold onto it but still allowing the two shafts to rotate independently, and keep the input shaft supported and lined up. Thanks.

Insert the bolt in the hole, and begin hitting it with a hammer. The bolt will push against the soap, which will put pressure on the inside of the pilot bushing, causing the bushing to slowly “walk out”.

Some of the older Subarus used a needle bearing as a pilot bearing. That bearing was pressed into the crankshaft and was a pain in the neck to remove after disentegrating or rusting in place. Hokey design. Later models went to a sealed ball bearing pressed into the flywheel.

I also use wheel bearing grease and the appropriate size wooden dowel from the hardware store to remove the pilot bearing (bushing).

On many vehicles, the ABS sensor is built into the wheel bearing, or it’s externally mounted adjacent to the spinning part of the bearing where the sensor measures vehicle speed. Damaged from a wobbly wheel bearing, the sensor will send erratic readings to the vehicle’s computer, illuminating the ABS light.

This subject is fresh in my mind, because I did a clutch job on a C7500 last week. The shop that resurfaced the flywheel made a slight mistake. They didn’t press the new pilot bearing far enough into the flywheel

A bad wheel bearing can cause a tire/wheel to move or glide unevenly or sluggishly. It can also cause your brakes to drag, pulling your vehicle to one side when you try to stop.
