Metal to metal sound on my 2009 Civic rear wheel

[oj88]

Yepp, nagpalit din ako ng rear hub bearings sa FD ko before. But in my case, it's a subtle "rrrrrr" rumbling sound that coincided with the vehicle speed. It's a common problem, especially if the vehicle had been through floods at inabot yung bearings.

Kaya nga, maraming mga tao ang lakas ng loob lumusong sa baha, thinking na basta hindi umabot sa intake, ok lang sila. Di nila alam na in many cases, pinapasukan ng tubig mga pang-ilalim na joints, bushings, at bearings. This is especially true kung biyak na yung mga rubber boots and whatnots. Once water gets to the grease or lubricant, bilang na araw nung part na yun.

Thank you so much for all the input! It is now fixed. Attachment 46108

The culprit was the rear wheel hub bearing! When the hub is turned, doon po nalabas ung tunog.. Okay na po siya. Though, I didn't expect the price of the hub bearing. Ang mahal pala, around 2k ang isa.

Super thank you po sa mga inputs! Will be back, I can feel na maglalabas na talaga ang mga sira since the mechanic told me that my bushings, ball-joint are already worned out and needing replacement..

bearing prices certainly have gone thru the roof...
from a few hundred bucks for a japanese brand, to about a thousing for a german or scandinavian brand, back in the day...

The rear hubs on the FD are assemblies, with the bearing built-in. I don't think you can practically replace just the bearings without destroying the hub itself. Kaya mahal.

Yup, they are assemblies so you can't just replace the bearings. So more expensive.
