Ok, last week i start hearing this howling noise coming from the front, only when the car was rolling, thought it could the CVs or the wheel bearing. Noise would get louder if i turned to the right and dissappeared when i turned to the left , got smart and swapped the bearings and everything reversed (louder now when turning to the left, etc). noticed a little water from the right bearing when swapping - didn't think of it then but now i suppose the bearing went bad due to a leaking rear seal, which if that is the case my good bearing is now using - at any rate i plan on replacing them both. I am assuming the rear seal comes with the assy, Does press in from the front when you install the bearing? Anything i should watch for? Is there any place i can get the bearing assy for less than $218 ea?
Also, i have a strange issue with the ABS, the dash icon is on 99% of the time (started about a month ago). anyway, every once in a while the light stays off, then when coming up to a stop it seems like the ABS kicks in and i will "slip" a foot or two before it catches again - could this be a speed sensor or a soleniod? is this something i should try and fix while replacing the bearings? darn thing works fine when the light is on...
