Can a wheel bearing go from good to "holy crap what is that sound?"
My front driver side area of my car just started making a pretty noticable vum,vum,vum,vum,vum metal rubbing sound.
I checked the tire because it almost sounded like I picked up something metal but, there was nothing. I still need to check the brake pads and rotor but i am leaning toward a wheel bearing.
I had to replace a rear wheel bearing a few years back and just ordered everything from Subarugenuineparts.com but that will take a few days to get here and I don't want to drive it anymore until I identify and fix the problem. Should I only use an oem bearing and seals or would I be safe going with a kragen/napa part?
Advice please.
