Frequently asked questions
How do I know which wheel bearing is making noise in my Hyderabad car?
Wheel bearing noise (hum or growl) typically changes when you swerve: if the noise INCREASES when swerving LEFT, the RIGHT bearing is bad (weight transfers to right, loading the failing bearing). If it INCREASES when swerving RIGHT, the LEFT bearing is faulty. The noise usually gets louder with speed. Metre Per Second confirms with a lift inspection — spinning each wheel to feel and listen for roughness or grinding.
