OK.. when i bought the car i noticed that front left wheel mas making some noise. I figured it was the rotors.. but recently i just changed my pads and rotors and the problem is still there. My steering wheel has a slight vibration as well, and when i hold the car at a certin speed the noise gets louder. could the wheel not being balanced make that noise?? or is the bearing..


thank you for any input.

 

With the wheel in question off the ground, look for some play by wiggling the wheel front to back. Some play would indicate a bad bearing/hub assembly.

 

thank you i will try that out this weekend.

 

Check the tires too, I had a similar problem and turned out my tires were jacked. Get an alignment.

 

i was really thinking getting the wheels rebalanced and getting an alignment as well but thats a lot of $$$$ lol.. something i dont really have rite now lol

 

alot of $$$$ huh? where do you live? i can get an alignment and balance done for 60 bucks

 

Thats pretty damn CHEAP. last time i went to firestone i paid like 100+. I live on LI (coram)
