Default Service wheel bearing?
Are the front wheel bearings meant to be serviced? That is, repaced with grease?

They should be sealed unlike older cars.

That's what I would have thought. But one day I pulled out the ABS sensor from the backside of the hub/spindle assembly and found a bunch of white grease all over the encoder wheel?!

Why would there be a bunch of grease in there?
