Confirmation please, wheel bearing issue
Hello all,
I have had this weird brake noise so today I took the wheel off and instantly noticed that the wheel had a lot of movement when lifted moving with my hands on the tires at 3 and 9 going side to side. Wheel off the rotor had a ton of movement.
Is this the bearing? There isn't much noise as far as crunch or squealing.
Thanks for input as I have to head to work in the morn

is that with the lugs holding the rotor in place with the wheel off while moving side to side? i could be wrong but i think those are also symptoms for other suspension components? would you describe the braking noise?

Movement, with wheel on and off.
Noise: I have drilled rotors, so it sounds like the rotor has moved all the way and I just hear " tat tat tat tat" no scraping.

Hey guys, I have similar issue too, when I drive 60-70 MPH in the freeway, I hear this woo..wooo...woo.wooo...wooo harmonic noise, is that my wheel bearing?
If I put in a new bearing, do I need to do that pre-loading crap thing?
