rumbling noise
When moving at low speeds, turning and slowing to stop, I hear a rumbling
bumping noise. I thought it could be joints in the front wheels. I put it on a hoist but didn't notice any play or unlikely vibration. Any ideas? 2000 Civic sedan |

They're a bit hard to diagnose, except that if you veer slightly to the right, the left side will rumble louder, and vice-versa, because the car's load shifts. Apparently the modern sealed ones can be noisy for YEARS too, and not change much. I'm no expert. Maybe you should do a group or Google search for 'wheel bearing noise' and see what you find?
