Wheel Bearings at Expert Automotives

Wheel Bearings Wheel bearings hold your wheels on and allow them to spin properly. They are not an automotive component to be taken lightly. Most wheel bearings are sealed at the factory and don t require replacement until perhaps 150 000 miles. However there are many cars on the road whose wheel bearings do require regular service. Wheel bearing maintenance generally means keeping them lubricated. This service is done by removing the wheel bearing from the wheel hub assembly greasing it manually or with a device called a wheel bearing packer and then reinstalling it. If your vehicle requires periodic wheel bearing maintenance it s essential you keep to the maintenance schedule. Over time the grease in your wheel bearings can breakdown and become less effective. Also grease can escape through the bearing until there s not enough left to lubricate the bearings. Without proper lubrication the wheel bearings could overheat. When that happens your wheels could fall off. Warning signs include a wobbly wheel or a low growl or hum coming from any of your wheels.
