I’m hear a sound from the rear at 50+ mph, esp on flat but not newly asphalted roads.
I’m trying to decide whether it’s the rear wheel bearing or the CV Any tips on how to pinpoint the problem ? Can the source be I pointed by running the car on a lift ? |

Jim my car is sitting under Matt's on the lift waiting for a new right wheel bearing.
CV's go clunk. Wheel bearings are more of a drown noise. Because of the size/width of the rear bearings they really don't change sounds when you turn. When I lifted the car and turned the wheel it just felt kind of rough. |
