Hi all, while I was driving I notice that im getting a sort of knocking sound under hard acceleration and as i cruised heard what appeared to be that "wooo wooo" sound. I JUST replaced my wheel bearings with a factory toyota wheel bearing kit.
My question is: what would cause a new wheel bearing to go bad? Im 99% certain I put it back correctly and that the person that pressed it in was reputable. --------------------  QUOTE (Galcobar @ Oct 15, 2008 - 2:44 AM)  You want power but have no money. That's a problem. Cheap. Reliable. Fast. Pick two. |

Wheel bearings don't typically make a "knocking" noise. Not to say it isn't possible. Check your ball joints, sway bar endlinks, and tie rod ends.
