My car has been making an annoying noise now for about 6 months, and I've decided that I'm going to do something about it.

I know it'* not the tire balance; it has done it with my summer performance tires AND my studded winter tires. (All of which were balanced to 0/0)

The steering wheel doesn't shake, so I don't *think* it'* alignment.

All of the engine lights are for a bad speed sensor, passenger side (front). Could a bad wheel bearing/speed sensor be the source of the noise?

Everything is stock besides the air intake.

Note: You'll probably have to turn it up, my camera had a hard time recording the sound. It'* like a slow-vibration noise. "whom-whom-whom-whom-whom"

that sounds like a hub to me i just replaced 3 of them on my ride

That'* what I was thinking too.

Also..On ZZP, they have a hub for like 70 bucks, while NAPA+my dealership are both charging $200 or so (just for the hub).

Is there a big difference in quality, or are NAPA+my dealership just a rip off?

Damn, I forgot I can't edit posts.

Here'* the ZZP hub.

go to http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/raframecatalog.php they have timken ones for $95 i think and very reliable brand and retailer

All I could find were the AC Delco ones.. : /

Nothing wrong with the Delco ones

Timken are better, but more $$$

Sounds like a bearing to me as well..

For what it is worth if you have the extra do them both, and save up for the rears

Hrm...

Well, on RockAuto, the Delco ones START at like $200.. Damn you, W-Body.
So the Timken ones must be like $250 or something?

Anyone have any experience with the ZZP hub? I mean, for $70, that'* a hell of a deal.

really? i just looked up a 2001 intrige on rock auto and the timkens are $90.79 each for the front and the rears non timken are just over $100 each

hmmm, I have never used the ZZP one..

but for 85.00 you could try it
