Rear Wheel Hub Assembly
 

I have a 2003 Santa Fe FWD and the rear end seems to have a "growling" sound
when turning to the left at road speeds. occasionally in straight stretches
it flares up a bit also. It Sounds like a bearing but since the car has had
repairs on that quarter due to an accident, I don't want to have the dealer
warranty the parts.

Hyundaitech, I want to replace the bearing hub assembly and the Spindle too
I would guess. Any tips or idea on the cost. I am fairly good at most
repairs so the prospect does not bother me.
Thanks in advance

I've never done this on a Santa Fe, but I would imagine the hub/bearing
assembly just unbolts and comes right off. The spindle may be a different
issue. It may be part of the rear suspension member. If you want to check
whether this is actually the noise, lift the rear wheel in question off the
ground, get under the car, and have a helper spin the wheel. If you put a
long screwdriver from the back of the spindle area to your ear, you can
probably hear the bearing if it's noisy. You could do the same on the
other side if you wanted to compare noise levels. I just did one on a
Sonata that was on the side of the car opposite from where I thought it
was coming from. I managed to get it right by listening like I mentioned
above.

Thanks for the info. I went through the steps but the items will not add to
the shopping cart. Although it looks a little clearer, I am Still stuck.
As I was looking for advice on the R&R I will hope others pass by with
advice as well.

Interesting, I have no (add to Cart) button on the page top. I will turn off
my pop-up blocker and try again.

Hyundaitech
Thanks for the advice. It looks pretty basic on the webtech site. The
exploded view is easy to read and I just wanted to get an idea on any tricks
or tips.
With the noise being more apparent under load, (with the vehicle weight
pushing outward) The right side is my guess, and other riders in the car
seem to feel it on that side also. I will try the mechanics stethescope I
have in my tool box and compare the 2 wheels. I Have not needed it for many
years, but that is why I kept it.

Thanks again, Let me know if you think of anything else.
