Signs of wheel bearings going bad
Hey all, I was wondering if anyone can tell me the signs that I have front wheel bearings going out? Also, is this a DIY job? Thank you in advance

When you drive if they make noise they are bad. You would be able to hear it while driving its high pitched. And yeah you can do it yourself if you have the right tools.

when you turn left, you stress the right bearing, so it will sing then. undo the axle nut with a nice breaker bar before jacking car up . detach control arm either from the knuckle, or the 2 frame mounts. then you can get the axle out and undo the bearing mounts. might want to buy a chiltons or similar.

Perfect. Thanks guys. I have the Toyota Camry Service Manual. I hear it is the same as the ES in most cases. Will this work for the ES wheel bearings?
