Would a Muffler make the car vibrate like a wheel bearing bad? i changed one but only vibrates?
Would a Muffler make the car vibrate like a wheel bearing bad? i changed one but only vibrates some of the time
Would a Muffler make the car vibrate like a wheel bearing bad? i changed one but only vibrates?
noooooooooo, if wheel bearings were bad it would be worse than a vibration

Dose it vibrate when the engin is running and not driving it? Is this a front wheel drive car. It sounds more like a cv joint to me. Dose it chane if you turn the steering wheel left or right while driving the car?
Don't worry, it usually just means that your tires have worn down a little and have gotten out of balance and need balancing, usually just one tire, though you pretty much have to balance them in pairs, because it's impossible to tell which one is the culprit.
If it wobbles only when you step on the brakes, it means that your brake rotor(s) have warped from braking too much or too hard or too long. Not expensive, usually they can be %26quot;turned%26quot; (ground down a little to make them straight again) very cheaply, or even replacing them should not be too expensive. Call around and ask three places first, %26quot;How much it will cost to turn the rotors on a (year and model car)? How much will it cost to replace them?%26quot;
If it wobbles only at a certain speed, say 35-55-65 mph, then you just have a tire that has worn down and gotten out of balance. It must be in the front because the front wheels are the ones that are attached to the steering wheel, wobbling it, right? So you can just have the front wheels balanced. Or if you feel a similar vibration but the steering wheel isn't wobbling, that will be the rear wheels needing the same thing.
If it wobbles at a pretty low speed, 25-45, you might have lost a balance weight, but the solution is still the same.
If it wobbles very bad even when starting to move at parking-lot speeds, that might be serious. Usually that means that the tire is coming apart and has gotten %26quot;lumpy%26quot;, and should be replaced IMMEDIATELY before it blows.
Bearing and front end problems don't cause wobbles. Bearings cause a grinding, scraping sound from one side or the other. Shock or strut problems just let the car bounce a lot, wearing out suspension springs and parts. Tie rod end looseness just gives the steering wheel too much %26quot;slack%26quot; before it starts actually turning the car.
You want to fix that wobble right away, even though it isn't dangerous, because the heavy tire %26quot;beating%26quot; back and forth will wear out suspension parts, which then won't pass inspection and will HAVE to be fixed.
Hope this reassures you a little!

the answer to this one is no..it is possible but only if your muffler is wedged against the bottom of your car...if a wheel bearing goes bad in a fwd then it generally sounds like your tire is rubbing on something.....if a wheel bearing goes bad in a rwd then you will generally feel a looseness in your steering right at first

What may happen to my front wheel bearing?
i have just changed cb joint coz it had sound and sort of worn out. after just few days of the changed cb joint i found another sound. i went to mechanic he said that the wheel bearing is worn and needs changing. i am bit confused whether the cb joint while fixing, due to mechanics fault, gets worn. is there any relation between cb joint fixing and bearing worn out?
What may happen to my front wheel bearing?
It is possible the bearing was damaged when the mechanic removed the cv axle joint but more than likely it was bad from the axle and with the new one (axle) installed it was the only noise you can hear now. Or the bearing could have been what damaged the axle joint from vibration.
What may happen to my front wheel bearing?
if your car as quite some miles on it your wheel bearings just need to be re-greased..
It is called a CV axle or joint, It means%26quot; Constant Velocity%26quot;.
Depending on the type of %26quot; -Hub bearing-%26quot; you have. It may have been damage by the way it is disassembled and put together. You should have been told this was possible before the job was started. The repair man may also need to be replaced.....
my bet is that the %26quot;CV%26quot; joint or constant velosity joint caused the bearings to shift just enough to wear on them.
Im assuming you mean cv because I have no idea what a cb joint is

I need to change the right wheel bearing hub?
How hard is it to change it if I replace the entire assembly? what would I need to get or to help me change the entire hub. This is for a Toyota Highlander 2001.
I need to change the right wheel bearing hub?
first you need the proper tools
second you need the proper know-how
third you need the proper facility
fourth it is very very hard
fifth send it to the mechanics for your own safety

When changing a Wheel hub assembly....?
do you have to %26quot;pack it with grease%26quot;?? or is the grease already inside the new hub assembly part? I am having the part changed because the wheel bearing is bad and I know they say when changing the wheel bearing you have to pack it with grease. so do you have to use grease if the bearing is inside the hub assembly since its all one unit??
When changing a Wheel hub assembly....?
depends on the hub, if it is a front wheel drive hub with a twin roller bearing then they are usually pre greased for life if its a non driveshaft hub then the taper bearings need grease if its a solid axle the bearings are lubricated by the ep axle oil
When changing a Wheel hub assembly....?
NO all wheel hubs are sealed. so they already have grease in them you only pack wheel bearings and since the wheel bearing is inside the hub and its sealed you cant pack it

How do i change a wheel bearing on a 98 dodge avenger?
i cant get the four bolts off the back of the wheel bearing there is not enough room to get a wrench or socket
How do i change a wheel bearing on a 98 dodge avenger?
you have to remove the lower ball joint nut and remove the spindle from the lower control arm then you can remove the axle and get to the bolts,you need a repair manual if you continue to work on this one,good luck with it.

You will probably have to take some suspension parts off.
You also may need a socket extender that will bend (I forgot the name of it)
I found front and rear hubs for you at:
Front: http://mibearings.com/wheel-bearing/5131鈥?/a>
Rear: http://mibearings.com/
They are USA made, and I suggest them
Good Luck!red acne spots on face ittwit
