Wheel bearing installed noise came back...Help!!!
I had a shop installed both front wheel bearings last Friday took it for a test drive with the Tech and we didn't hear any noise whatsoever except from my tires. So i went home and parked the car for a few days then take it for a ride today and the noise came back. Called the shop and they kept saying it's the tires but i explained to them it's making the same noise as before the bearing was installed. Now they're saying it might be the rear bearings that's going bad.
I don't have any money for them to replace something that's not gonna fix the real issues.
The wheel bearings is Beck/Arnley brand and my tires are Ventus V12.
Any inputs or maybe suggestions on what to look for or check? Maybe they missed something when they replace the bearings? Thanks in advance

I'm going through the same thing myself. I replaced the front/rear wheel bearings and put all new tires and still have that same bearing noise so the only thing left that I can think of is the carrier bearing(drive shaft support bearing) that could be making the noise. While im in there I'll inspect the u-joints as well. So have your rears checked along with the the u-joints and carrier bearing. I do it all myself to save money, so if you have the know how you should give it a shot. Hope this helps
