92 Bonneville bearing problem

Jun 11, 2005 7 Replies

My 92 Bonneville makes a noise that sounded like a left front bad bearing but I wasn't sure if it came from the right or left.



The noise increased when I turned the steering to the right and decreased when I turned it to the left.



I replaced it and the noise is still there. The right side was replaced about a year ago, maybe 2. It does not appear to be from the real wheels at all. Could it be a bearing in the transaxle?

But it sounds like a bearing and when I turn in circles right and left testing the CVGs I don't hear anything.

Not transaxle. If it sounds like a bearing, it could be a bearing. What brand bearings did you put in a where were they made?

Hmmm... Could it possibly be the tire? You could try swapping L-R.

A friend of mine had the same problem. turned out that the people who did the brake job did not tighten the wheel properly.

Problem fixed. The bearing that was replaced 1 to 2 years ago, went bad again. So, the old one I just replaced on the left, put it on the right, and no more noise. Thak you to all that replyed to my post.
