Default wheel bearing?

correct me if i'm wrong but when a wheel bearing goes it makes the grinding sound all the time right? mine only does it from a cold start, then after 15-20mins of driving it goes away and doesn't come back until it sits for a while.

and i know it's suspension related because the sound changes as my speed changes.

no it does not always make a sound but over time like the cvjoint the grease wears then the ballbearings become warn and give it play,so if you take off your brakes and your rotor has play then time to change the bearing.it should have no movment what so ever

gotcha, yeah i checked it today and there was no play in it. plus the sound went away and hasn't come back. i'm not sure what it was so i'll be looking the suspension over this week when i get a chance.

if you would turn side to side driving down the road, the sound should chage if it is a bad bearing

Sometimes a bearing without enough grease will heat up what's available
and it will quiet down when it flows back in....not good for the bearing to run dry at first....or at all. When cold, can you feel any roughness as you press against the wheel and turn it?

How do you know it has an abundant supply of grease?

Any looseness at all?-Bob

no play what-so-ever in it, and the sound still hasn't come back. i don't have power steering so i'd be able to feel it, but nothing.
