Wheel bearings can take a long time to die, usually, and get progressively noisier as they go until they roar pretty loudly. CV joints usually make a rapid clunking noise in very tight low-speed turns when they start to go bad. The wheel bearing on the '90 is a real PITA to change. Consider having it done if that's what the problem is. -- JRE |
