![]() So, you may be able to wait a while on doing repairs. I am with you, it is much better doing driveway repairs, when it is not freezing cold outside. Others may chime in to agree or disagree with me. I am no wheel bearing expert, but seem to remember reading here that you can drive quite some time & millage on a worn wheel bearing without a problem. That is what a bad bearing is known to do. The big clue is change of noise, when cornering. Since tire rotation didn't change the sound of the noise, I am thinking you have a wheel bearing going out. It's not the kind of whirring a bad diff makes. Parking brake isn't rubbing and it's all working properly.Īlso, by whirring noise, it's more of a cross between the sound of a wheel bearing and brakes dragging. There's no play in the wheel, no handling problems. If I put it in N going up a hill, it'll make the noise as it slows down. If I then push the gas a bit more to maintain a constant speed, the noise goes away.Īlso, it doesn't matter what gear the automatic transmission is in. So probably not anything to do with brakes.įurthermore, if I push the brakes, and push the gas at the same time (but still slowing down) the noise is still there. It isn't related to the brakes, if I push the brakes or pull the parking brake handle the noise persists, and doesn't change at all. It doesn't do it when driving a constant speed or accelerating, just decelerating foot off the gas. When I decelerate there's a sort of whirring noise from the back right wheel. My 98 legacy has contracted a weird issue it didn't have before it sat for 5 months. ![]()
