bobstoc Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Does anyone know how much a front wheel bearing replacement would cost (at a dealership) for a 2001 Lexus GS430? My car has developed an intermittent, low humming sound. I don't know if it's my tires or if its the bearings. Also, could bad bearings in the front make a creaking/cracking sound when turning at low speeds?? Thanks in advance for your help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djspawn00 Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 cracking when turning? sounds like control arms like brian said... bearings go for about $40 each and you'll need two for upfront. I wouldn't go to the dealership also, save your money. Have whoever is doing the work check the ball joints and inspect the tie rods.
