I have a 2004, RX30 and have a sound coming from somewhere on the car. it's sounds like the tire area, but I'm not sure. It only makes the noise from 20-35 mph. It starts out like a slow warble and the sound speeds up when I accelerate and then dissipates. Wasn't sure if it's a bearing going bad as there are no codes when I check. My question is, when a bearing is going out on this model, will it throw a code to let me know if a bearing is bad, or going bad?
Thanks for any input!

Yep, that's what mine does. I thought it was the front right, but when I opened the window it sounded like the right rear. Maybe I'll just replace all the hubs at once and be done with it. Thanks for the info!

I could understand that for the front bearings, but being that the rear ones are fairly easy, do the other rear when needed.......

I wonder if mine have already been replaced, however the hubs look original on front and back so Im not sure and I got the car near 120k miles.
Is it normal for the bearings to fail below 100k miles or does the weather play a factor here on how many miles before they fail?

I do say following this subforum, bearings are common for this gen RX but won't say it's bad enough to warrant a recall.
