Help! with brakes
 
ok i was driving the other day and i noticed a slight whobbling sound coming from my driver side front wheel. I jacked the car up to see what was wrong, and found that if i pulled back and forth on the rim, that it actually moved about 2 cm. The whole rim/brake/axles assembly moves with it. I checked for any loose bolts and there were none. But if i put pressure on the brake caliper, everything is nice and tight and lined up. Any ideas of what could be wrong??? should i just bleed the breaks?

Sounds like you may have a worn out hub bearing and maybe a warped rotor.....

Wheel bearing!! Just replaced mine a week ago!!

Depending on finances, replace both sides! My research found that wheel bearing run between $35-$65 depending where you go. If you know how, just remove the entire spindle and take it w/ the new bearing to NAPA and have them press the old one out and the new one in! Or do what i did...go to the junk yard and get spindles from a 96 Integra, replace the balljoints and install them yourself. Just for the hell of it i called Honda to see what they wanted to do it and they told me between $250-$300 per side!!!! I paid $50 for two spindles......hook-ups! :D
