2late4u Posted March 7, 2016 Report Share Posted March 7, 2016 my daughter said dad my van is making a whomp whomp noise and has been doing it for about a week, she is a postal route sub. driver so i take it for a drive and it sounded liked a possible brake pad grinding into a rotor but it made the noise with out your foot on the pedal, well narrowed it down to the front right side tire, jacked it up and the wheel had a little play when pushing on the tire so decided it was the bearing and it was, took about 30 minutes to replace it after going to buy a new one about $69. with the discount it was $49. at advance auto . its good thing we had replaced the cv joint so we had the socket for that nut I think its 32mm . but it sure didnt sound like a bearing going bad in the old days it usually sounded like a whine or high pitch noise.... jkeaton, dhh3 and rolly 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
