View Full Version : Wheel bearings going bad?

When I start my car, and move there is this intensely loud screeching type noise sort of metal on metal coming from the driver front wheel area. it goes away after driving for a few minutes and is loud when turning left as well.

Is this the wheel bearing or something else? If so should I have the shop do it or is it easy enough for me to do it at home?

Id say its the wheel bearing.. just like mines been doing. Does it also make a scraping sound when turning and such? Check out my thread:
