Subject:Noise coming from front wheel
From:Paul
Date:Sun, 13 Jun 2010 07:56:22 -0700

Lately I've been hearing a knocking sound coming from the passenger side
wheel. This only happens when I go up really, really steep inclines like
driveways and private roads. Looking around down there I realized that there
isn't much that could make any sounds except the front wheel bearings. I
jacked up the front and the wheel isn't loose so I took off the grease cap
and worked some grease into the bearing and it stopped it somewhat. Would
this be an indication that I need to replace them?
TIA,
Paul
