If You Hear a Loud Rolling Noise, It Could Be a Bearing

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Bearing

If you hear a loud rolling noise inside the cabin, you might have a problem with a wheel bearing or the wheel itself. Try running your hand over the wheel. If it feels "rough", then the problem is the wheel itself. If it feels smooth, try swapping the front tyre with the rear one. If the noise doesn't change, then you might have a bearing issue. You need to remove the wheel from the vehicle to access the wishbones, caliper, and disc. Detach all of this. You will only need to take out the hub pin and pull off the disc. Inside is the bearing. By testing the parts once disassembled, you can clearly hear the noise the bearing makes inside the part. During disassembly, be very careful not to damage the ABS sensor's notching. Naturally, specific equipment is required to remove the bearing; this is not something you can do alone. This video is only to show how the work is carried out.
