This video has to be the best one ive seen so far, def help me understand the difference between a bad rotor and calipre vs a bad wheel bearing and even shows how to replace. Keep it up bro!
its crazy how many different sounds bad wheel bearing produces. I have the similar whoop whoop sound and had to listen to many different videos of bad bearings before finding the same noise
Best video I’ve found! Nice quality, well explained, covering all the angles. 10/10. I’m really hoping my car just needs a wheel bearing because it sounds a lot like the begging of the video. Not as bad but I’m afraid it’s getting there 😅
I just did my FX45, pretty much Identical to this, Do remove your ABS sensor it's plastic and you do not want to bump it and damage it. I did both sides while I was at it, do it if you can budget it..great video straight to the point and my FX was making the same exact sound.
Very good video! I'll be referencing this when I confirm it's the bearing, thank you! FYI, I once twisted a lug when standing on the breaker bar, how you undid the lug nut. I would suggest using a small sledge on the breaker bar, rather than standing. Perhaps use penetrating oil.
@@windows_down_ Hy man question for you... Would the noise from a bearing starting to go bad become almost like a "harmonic" sound? At some speeds, it completely goes away. And at some speeds, it's loud enough that it has a terrible frequency that hurts my ears, like a "brown note" if you will. When turning slightly at high speeds, it will be louder in one direction than the other, and also at slow speeds while turning I feel a slight vibration coming through the wheel. So does this sound like bearings?
It's really hard to say. It could be a bearing or a variety of parts that are rotating like an unbalanced wheel or messed up caliper/brake pad as well. I'd start off looking for play in the wheel bearings and the brakes for any obvious issues.
Mine old shakes when I'm at around 30 or 40 mph and as long and I keep it steady and going up once I let go of the accelerator or accelerate it, it goes away help
Great video. I've been chasing steering wheel vibration forever. I changed tires, balance, road force balance, 3 shops checked suspension, drive shaft, everything. Looks good. I even bought new wheels. When I test fitted the new wheels, I put the wheels on without tires mounted, and spun it. There was a wavy motion as I was spinning it. Could this be wheel bearing bad? I don't have any strange noises
So ,is Moog better than Timken, what are your experiences? I did put Moog also in front, seems like cones still sone noise, maybe it is from tyres? i am not sure.
Check the wheel bearings, I had the same issue, finally fixed it. The driver side one was causing the issue. I did both sides since my car is high mileage 04 G35 coupe w Brembos.
Same here, I think mine is the driver's side but I haven't jacked it up to check yet and since they use the same assembly for left and right side I'm just going to wait until the bearing assembly arrives to determine which bearing is failing. I'm going with a Japanese wheel bearing assembly because I only want to do the job once.
How did u get the 4th bolt out I have it lose but I cant seem to take it out it’s at the point where it shows the first thread but I don’t have that much space to twist it
Question?.. I have same problem, replaced tires, rims are not bent and I'm feeling the same wobble on the front driver side but the whole wheel doesn't have any play or grinding noise.is it possible that the wobble I'm getting is coming from the front passenger instead of driver side where I'm feeling it?
It can be difficult to pinpoint which wheel it is, so it doesn't hurt to check the others. Does the wobble increase with the speed of the car? A bearing could also be going out, but not be audible when spinning it with your hand. It's good to rule out a bad axle (if it's a driven wheel), brake caliper, or other rotating piece.
@@windows_down_ well the rim itself has bad curb rash leading me to believe that it has to be a wheel bearing.everyone tells me it might be out of alignment but shouldn't it pull to one side if it was out of alignment? It doesn't pull at all, stays straight.and yes it increases as you gain speed.
Would you know why a new replacement front hub bearing would roar a bit after installed? It's on an 06 infiniti g35x awd. torq spec i found was 92 ft lb, its a TRQ hub bearing. The old one was replaced by a Mechanics garage less than 3 months ago and now this new one roars just a bit
Good tutorial, I hope the Moog wheel bearing assembly don't bite you in the butt. I'm going with a wheel bearing assembly made in Japan. Apparently many of the tried and true wheel bearing companies have outsourced manufacturing to China and are not the same quality they once were.
I used SKU which are just a slight notch below the Toyo bearings but still very good Got to change the front right bearing now & the odometer is at 292,465..... Pretty impressive for the life of a bearing from the manufacturer.
Bro when you said it happens more or less with the spinning of the tire so now Ik for a fact it’s my bearings cuz my car sounds exactly like that and shakes violently at 30mph +
My wheels do not move as freely as yours does.... i replaced my pads, and rotors... all my wheels seem tight, one of the reasons why i'm considering replacing all 4 bearings on my fx35 with 170K miles on it.
All 4 bearings would be a project. If it's the drive wheels, they will be much harder to rotate even if in neutral. If one wheel is making more noise than the others, I'd start there
@@windows_down_ I have an all wheel drive. I'm changing the bearings all one shot. i purchased the Detroit Axle ones. I may do the front ones first and then the rear or bang them out in one shot. Not sure year. Waiting for my mechanic to get back to me on timing.
@@windows_down_ Thank you, i originallt ordcered Detroit Axle wheel bearings but read some terrible reviews on them, so i found some OEM Infiniti ones on Ebay for 112.00 each. Purchased those. Will have front ones installed first next weekend! Thank you! Your Video has helped alot!
I bought Moog Wheel bearing on both front wheels of my 2010 Lincoln town car and now 1 year later less then 20,000 miles I’m having to replace them again buy factory it’s not worth replacing again get it done right the first time because these are safety issues and not worth the risk.
Depends on experience and tools available. I'd say a few hours to a full day. The rear wheel bearing wouldn't be similar, but not identical because of the axle.
2:54 A poor man's dial indicator, huh? Nowhere near as accurate for runout measurements but not a bad idea though for a quick look @ a rim w/ curb rash all over it👍
First of all, a hammer doesn't have a 'shaft' - what you're referring to is called a handle. Second, he's not driving nails into a fucking house frame - within the limited space of a wheel well, trying to swing a hammer like you're suggesting is virtually retarded. Third, you would know this if you had any experience with the basics of using a hand tool in automotive repair.
Please answer. I have had this issue for over 3 yrs. Started right after I replaced wheel barrings. I got cheap ones from Amazon. Plus the car place over torqued. Mine feels like rumble strips. When I let of or increase speed it stops. The shaking happens in gas peddle and more on passenger side. I have a 2010 Dodge Ram slt 4x4. Is this what is causing the rumble? No one can figure it out. Shudder only at steady speeds. Doesn’t matter if I’m going 35 or 75. It happens more often on the highway
I wish all you tube videos were this professionally done, great job, no silliness and no yelling. Kudos to you young man.

That's a good point. There's several ways a bearing can fail, making it hard to pin point.

Nice 240z !
I never done the side to side and up and down thing on the rim. I only done it on the tire
Mine old shakes when I'm at around 30 or 40 mph and as long and I keep it steady and going up once I let go of the accelerator or accelerate it, it goes away help
Spacer could be the issue of bad wheel bearing ! Is it stock ?
I would not go cheap on bearings.
This is a hard working component, it might cost a tiny tiny bit more, but I would use OEM.
I was looking into it it's about a hundreds n sumthing

Hard to say but it's possible. If you spin the hub and it's not a powered wheel, and you see/hear something, then it's most likely a wheel/hub bearing
So ,is Moog better than Timken, what are your experiences? I did put Moog also in front, seems like cones still sone noise, maybe it is from tyres? i am not sure.
U forgot to put anti seize on the spacer again 😅 great video btw
Appreciate it and good catch on the anti seize - hopefully there's enough residual
How do u kno its a bearing and not ball joint
Good shit I got a 2004 G35 same problem rn
Did you find out what it was ? Having the same problem with my 04 rn

I used a regular open ended wrench for that one tough bolt. If you can get the bearing loose, it may give you more room

Right on.it was a wheel hub 👍
With a years of experience! Bad wheel bearing doesn’t appear on the steering wheel except a bad axle( VIBRATION)
also have an old z (1978) sitting next to my main ride that i need to replace rear wheel bearings
Good year, that's what mine is. It needs EVERYTHING replaced. Hopefully videos to come on it.

Hmm, I suppose there's a chance it's bad out of the box or maybe something is rubbing
@@windows_down_ no rub checked after test drive and when i turn righ a lil bit small roar goes away
Can you list the part number of the bearings so I can buy them?
Sure thing! The part I used I got from Rock Auto. It's MOOG 513268:
www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=1318761&pt=1636&jsn=719

I hope they don't bite me either, but so far so good.
moog is produced in Taiwan. Some say they use Timjen bearing. It should make them last. warranty is 3 years.
👍🏼
Would the car have trouble when you would first drive off
For me, I could hear the noise at low speeds indicating an issue. The noise changed with the speed of the car
Watch my how to video on how to take out that bottom hub bolt easily 👍
How many miles were on that bearing
I just changed my two back bearings on a 2010 Toyota highlander after 290,000 miles
Nice video
Thanks, I think these were OEM ones and I'm at 150k mi + right now
I used SKU which are just a slight notch below the Toyo bearings but still very good
Got to change the front right bearing now & the odometer is at 292,465.....
Pretty impressive for the life of a bearing from the manufacturer.
I have the same car and I’m hearing a weird whining sound when I’m driving think it could be tht?
It's possible, does it change with the speed of the car? May be worth jacking it up and seeing if any wheels sound weird spinning freely
@@windows_down_ yeah it does I’ll make sure to check that out first
Bro when you said it happens more or less with the spinning of the tire so now Ik for a fact it’s my bearings cuz my car sounds exactly like that and shakes violently at 30mph +
Glad it helped, definitely best to fix it soon
So you’re car would shake around 15mph and up?
It had a subtle vibration, the noise was more noticeable
Bro did your steering shake going straight like 60mph+
nah, but I could feel it in the steering. If it's really bad that could happen
Was it like a pulsating sensation in the wheel? I can hear a humming noise that is in time with pulsing in the steering wheel
What size where the hub bolts?
Sorry, I can't recall. The largest are the brake caliper bolts. If you have sockets big enough for those, you should be set
On my 2004 G35 with Brembos, the 2 Caliper bolts are 22mm and the 4 hub bolts are 17mm
Will you come fix the wheel bearing in my Toyota Avalon? 😁😉😉

Hard to say, being 4x4 could be any of the axles as well as bearings. Anything that rotates could be the culprit 😬
