new wheel bearing and a new caliper.? Hi guys,question......i have a 2000 chevy malibu that i think needs a new wheel bearing and a new caliper. First off the car has a broken "spring" on the passengers side and i just changed the break pads,the inner passengers side was completeley gone and the outter of same wheel was decent.The car has alot of road noise now and humms very loud when you turn left which to me indicates new wheel bearing is needed. I, however, am not very confident on this because couldnt a bad caliper do the same thing? Any and all input is greatly appreciated!!! Thank you
