      I have none of those 2 symptoms but all of the vibrations and the ABS light on and a OBD2 device i have around said the senson on that same wheel went south too, so, i just took the wheel and sensor plug and brake assembly and there you have it: when i spin the brake disk altogether it does rotates BUT with rattling sound kind of weird. My car does a hummnig soud that increses at speed and a crazy vibration that ruins the drive for me. REALLY APPRECIATE THIS VIDEO !!! GOOD

    Hey my car was stolen , I replaced the strut assembly and the font left cv axel but for some reason the wheel is super close to the inner wheel drum compared to the other side ? Hopefully u can understand my question lol and I’m currently dealing with uneven tire wear but I mainly think it’s cuz my front left wheel is dispositioned , mind pointing me in the ryte direction for this repair?

  • @neilvandepol2903
    @neilvandepol2903 5 місяців тому

    Good concise information without over explaining. Be sure to wear clean non fabric, Preferably Nitrile gloves when packing a bearing with grease. Bearings are made to extremely tight tolerances, any debris, even fine fibers from the glove material can cause premature wear and bearing failure.

  • @ayush_dwr12
    @ayush_dwr12 3 місяці тому

    how to know that it is the bearing and not the rotors? I have some of these symptoms. Not growling noise but clicking sound and frequency increases at higher speeds. I also have vibration at higher speeds that comes and goes, but it does get worse if I brake.
    Any idea how to tell if it's brake or bearing? Do i just need to take it to the shop at this point?

    Just purchased and noticed that when I turn slightly left on a speed between 20-40mh I hear strong pulsing noise. I changed the tires, sway bar links new brakes and discs. I am now suspecting the wheel bearing, but There is no play whatever or noise on either side when turned by hand. At the same time there is no pulsing no humming no grinding noise when driving straight, any thoughts, please ?

    • @Sohidden
      @Sohidden 8 місяців тому

      Likely wheel bearing. There’s degrees to how bad it can be. If the sound changes based on how fast you’re going it’s 99% of the time a wheel bearing. If you notice some slight play left and right in the wheel but not up and down it may be outter tie rod. You can also check inner tie rod play which would be in and out (inner tie rods should have no movement in or out, only swivel). Could also be a bushing 🤷🏻‍♂️ hard to diagnose without being there

    • @nas979
      @nas979 8 місяців тому

      You are Spon on it's the wheel bearing. The only way I found out was lifting both wheels up then spinning with one hand while the other hand on the coil spring feeling any abnormal faint friction. And that's when I found that one wheel was so smooth but the other I could feel grinding on the spring. It's at it first stage so very difficult to diagnose. Thanks for your reply.. I will definitely check the tie rods on the way.

    I think I have a bad wheel hub on my E90. No ABS light, but I had a TPMS warning, and if I'm not mistaken, the way tire pressure monitoring works on E90s is by wheel speed, it measures the wheel speed, and as the tire deflates, the radius of it shrinks, increasing the wheel speed, and when the TPMS reads that increased wheel speed, it thinks the tire got deflated. What do you think? Might that, along with a grinding noise and high vibrations, be the cause? The wheel doesn't move when I jack the car up and try to giggle it with my hands.
