any one else have wheels bearings going out?? i have the front driver side one sqeeking very loud now and i dont know why (well if there sealed bearings i guess they could have broke from wheel hop but that isnt to likely)


im going to try and call the dealer and see if this is covered under warrenty or if the considered wear iteams like breaks let me know if any one is having the same issue

 

how many miles do you have on your car? ever have damage to the car in that area? like a pothole? what year is your tC?

 

05 (early 05 like down payment put in july 04 drove it home in late aug early ) 22k miles i think and i hit a curb going 45 mph like 6 months ago dont think that could have caused it seeing as it was so long ago but who knows if any thing there cheap and easy to replace but its cold out and and dont want to do it lol

 

Go to the dealer I had the same thing happen to my car and I had about 24000 miles on it and the warrenty covered it.

 

ok cool glad to know its not me now i just need to find time i hate working like damn 8-5 i need a 3rd shift job lol

 

Wow that's strange. Hope you guys get it all figured out

 

how much is it to replace a tC wheel bearing?
wheel bearings for my old VW cost $40 each, while $150 each for my old 240SX. hopefully tC bearings arent so much.

factors that put added stress on wheel bearings (and lead to premature wear):
-larger wheels
-super thin tires
-extreme low offset wheels
-thick wheel spacers
-road contact (potholes, curbs, f'ed up roads, etc)
-burn outs

 

napa told me 45 but they also give me the wrong parts any time i go pick up any thing for the tc (you should have seen the huge inner tie rod they tried to give me lol )
