the braking steering and suspension
0:02
systems of a vehicle consist of several
0:04
wheel bearings the wheel bearings are
0:06
most commonly used in the front and rear
0:08
wheels of the vehicle undefined
0:14
therefore it is possible that a wheel
0:16
bearing can get faulty with time while
0:18
the other bearings maintain their good
0:22
what are wheel bearings
0:25
the wheel bearings are small steel balls
0:27
that are bonded together with the help
0:31
due to the unique design of the wheel
0:33
bearing the wheels rotate smoothly with
0:37
every wheel has a solid Hollow metallic
0:39
piece in its Center known as The Hub the
0:42
bearings are installed tightly in the
0:44
hubs and run on metal axles this reduces
0:46
friction when the wheel spins
0:49
wheel bearings are the supporting point
0:51
of a vehicle your vehicle's weight lies
0:53
on the bearings that's why bearings
0:55
frequently bear a lot of wear and tear
0:58
symptoms of bad wool bearings
1:02
as the wheel bearing goes bad or damaged
1:04
they produce one or more of the below
1:06
Gibbon signs grinding noise uneven tire
1:08
where loose steering wheel one side
1:10
vehicle pull steering wheel vibration
1:12
illuminated ABS warning light will
1:18
the humming rumbling or grinding noise
1:20
coming from your cars will is one of the
1:22
clear symptoms of bad wheel bearings
1:24
this sound is due to heat produced by
1:26
the absence of lubricant inside the
1:30
you may feel this sound like the sound
1:31
of two pieces of metal grinding together
1:33
commonly this sound comes only from the
1:36
wheel with a damaged bearing you can
1:38
clearly notice the grinding sound while
1:40
turning or shifting your car
1:47
usually the wheel bearings get damaged
1:49
or worn out in an uneven way as though
1:51
will bearing wears out it may also lead
1:53
to where out of the wheel tire
1:56
this will lead the corresponding Tire to
1:58
have abnormal Tire where compared to the
2:00
others normally all the tires of your
2:02
vehicle wear out near each other but in
2:04
case a bad wheel bearing you may face
2:06
uneven tire wearing out
2:09
three loose steering wheel
2:13
the steering wheel of the car sometimes
2:15
may feel loose or less responsive than
2:17
normal this loose steering can be due to
2:19
bad wheel bearings more this can also be
2:22
the reason for bad wheel alignment
2:25
4. one side vehicle pull
2:30
gets old the smooth internal layer of
2:32
the bearing becomes rough and results in
2:34
vibrations during the movement of the
2:37
because of this vibration your car may
2:39
be pulled towards one side of the
2:41
damaged bearing with the application of
2:43
the brakes you will observe a one-sided
2:47
this one-sided pole is a clear symptom
2:49
of damage brake calipers or rotors but
2:52
still the main reason for the whole
2:54
scenario can be the bad wheel bearings
2:57
5. steering wheel vibration
3:02
a vibration in the steering wheel is one
3:04
of the clear signs of bad wool bearings
3:05
the intensity of this vibration can
3:08
increase with the high speed or turning
3:09
your car at any position
3:11
but the vibration on the steering wheel
3:13
can be due to several reasons like tire
3:15
balancing issues round tire or a damaged
3:18
suspension system of your car
3:20
6 ABS light illumination
3:24
with any issue in the ring or the wheel
3:26
the speed sensor of the wheel can get
3:28
faulty as a result the anti-lock System
3:32
after all this the ABS of your car will
3:35
not work properly in such a condition
3:37
you should immediately contact a
3:39
professional mechanic
3:44
well wobble can be checked by lifting
3:46
the vehicle and observing the wheel's
3:49
if you feel any instability or
3:51
vibrations in the wheel you must check
3:52
the hub assembly immediately if you
3:55
prolong this issue the tire or the wheel
3:57
will come off and create dangerous
3:58
situations with huge consequences
4:01
causes of wheel bearing malfunction
4:05
will bearing quality driving conditions
4:07
contamination and corrosion poor
4:09
installation and balanced tires on even
4:10
roads poor lubrication and accidents are
4:12
the major causes of bad wheel bearings
4:15
one will bearing quality
4:19
the life of a wheel bearing depends on
4:21
its quality will bearings with high
4:23
quality will last longer than that
4:26
the complex design of the bearings makes
4:28
them a tricky product created with
4:30
complex production procedures similarly
4:32
low Quality Steel is less resistant to
4:35
heat and will be worn out quickly over
4:38
two driving conditions
4:41
regular driving through uneven surfaces
4:43
like road salt water or mud can cause
4:46
the malfunctioning of the wheel bearing
4:48
these contaminants can sometimes enter
4:50
the bearing and mix with grease or
4:53
three improper installation
4:57
will end bearings can damage due to the
4:59
use of the wrong tools or improper use
5:02
sometimes old nuts seals and bolts can
5:05
be the reason for bad wheel bearings and
5:07
may increase the chances of accidents in
5:10
4. contamination and corrosion
5:14
the wheel bearings of your vehicle have
5:16
seals that protect them from water dirt
5:18
and other contaminants when the seals
5:20
become damaged dirt or water may enter
5:22
the bearings which leads to premature
5:30
imbalance tires are one of the main
5:32
causes of bad wheel bearings balancing
5:34
the imbalanced tires of a car is a
5:36
crucial part for any car professional
5:39
the ability of a bearing to Bear the
5:40
weight may vary from bearing to bearing
5:42
that is why some bearings can long last
5:49
frequently driving on uneven and rough
5:52
roads increases the chances of bearing
5:54
damage with time minor damage to wheel
5:56
bearing will enhance that damage and
5:58
fails to eliminate friction for Wheels
6:04
accidents are one of the major factors
6:06
that can cause intense and sudden damage
6:08
to any part of your car due to accidents
6:11
even minor hits can cause dents and
6:13
bearings and damage them
6:15
eight poor lubrication
6:18
the wheel bearings of your vehicle need
6:20
proper lubrication to work efficiently
6:23
if your vehicle has very low or
6:25
contaminated lubricant your bearings May
6:27
overheat and wear out more quickly
6:30
how to distinguish bad wheel bearing
6:33
1. squealing and growling noises
6:37
the characteristic noises are bad while
6:39
bearings typically include growling
6:41
squealing and cyclical chirping sounds
6:43
these sounds are often related to wheel
6:45
bearings if they change in accordance
6:47
with the speed of your car
6:52
it's crucial to accurately identify the
6:55
source of various noises coming from
6:56
your vehicle in order to escape
6:58
misdiagnosis some sounds may seem
7:00
similar but they can stem from different
