Wheel hub bearing noisewhen braking

Yeah, the going rate for good labor is $150-$250/hour these days. And they'll want to use their own parts unless you already have a great relationship with the shop.

Isn't labor generally, roughly, about, approximately 80-100 dollars an hour at an indy shop? I feel like that is the range i have heard tossed around. So I suppose whatever book time is times that if you are supplying the parts. Sorry this reply isn't of more value.

When a wheel hub bearing goes bad, you may feel some looseness in the steering wheel. When a bearing wears down, it becomes loose within the wheel hub and spindle. This will make your steering wheel feel loose.

A worn wheel hub bearing is a pretty big deal. If you let it go on long enough, the wheel could literally fall off while you’re driving. That could cause a catastrophic accident that puts your life and others’ lives at risk. That’s why it’s important to watch out for bad wheel hub symptoms.

When your wheel is vibrating and/or wobbling, the bearing is very loose. It’s because the bearing has lost its clamp. There may be some severe mechanical damage, too.

This happens when the wheel bearing becomes bad enough. Most likely, you will hear noises before uneven tire wear happens. A worn wheel bearing makes the wheel loose. This causes the tire to wear out unevenly.

Sigh. It really needs ball joints too, and I don't really have an extra $1,000 to just drop on something like this. I guess some late night wrenching is in order.

Worn bearings become loose. As a result, excessive runout happens. This causes the brakes to pulsate or pull. In other cases, a corroded or pitted bearing transmits the vibration through the steering. This can cause pulling to one side, too. Your vehicle will pull to the side of the failed wheel bearing.

Most mechanics won't let you use your own parts now a days. So that may be problematic as well. I'd say about $450 plus parts. They will will want to replace the whole hub and not just the bearing. So $250-$300 for the hub.

When it’s time to replace a wheel hub assembly on a vehicle, it’s important to use a high quality replacement unit. This post has 3 great reasons to avoid using a cheap, low quality wheel hub assembly.

This noise is particularly prominent when the vehicle is traveling in a straight line. It gets worse when the vehicle is turning slightly at a speed of 15-50 mph. In a normal situation, you can pinpoint the problematic wheel bearing if you hear this noise. In most cases, the bad bearing is the cause of the rumbling noise.

When a wheel hub bearing wears out, it puts extra stress on the CV-joint. That can cause the knocking/clunking noise when you turn the vehicle.

The average cost for a Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD wheel bearing replacement is between $384 and $489. Labor costs are estimated between $179 and $226 while parts are priced between $205 and $263. This range does not include taxes and fees, and does not factor in your specific model year or unique location.

If you hear a grinding noise, that means there’s a loss of integrity in the steering or suspension system. For instance, there may be roller or raceway damage. When you have a worn wheel hub bearing, this noise is prominent when the vehicle is turning.

My 2002 Silverado needs new front wheel bearings... badly. I have been planning to do them myself, but some general wrenching fatigue, lack of appropriate Torx bits, and a severe lack of time have kept me form doing the job. I've been "one weekend away" from fixing it for about a month and a half, and I'm starting to think of farming it out to someone else to do the job. I haven't been to a mechanic in forever though. I already have the parts, what should I expect to pay for labor?

The crackling noise is a result of a worn or damaged outer CV-joint. It may also mean excessive bearing endplay due to poor clamping.

“Unusual noises” is quite vague, but for a good reason. There are many, many unusual noises associated with a worn wheel hub bearing. Some of the most common noises include:
