Halp! Bad Wheel Bearing?

[Jake]

screeching sounds like a continually moving part, not a bushing (which will make a noise once, as it shifts position). i'm thinking something reciprocating like brakes/bearings. if it's happening during braking, check the brakes first, might be a caliper or pad issue. are you getting pad knockback? bad wheel bearings can do that.

It's not happening during braking. It's happening under acceleration/load. Straight-line accel is some vibration (which could be the guibo, entirely or to an extent). Any sort of forward motion while turning left (no matter how hard a left) gets the screech. I don't remember if it made the noise when I backed in to my parking spot.

And yes Mike that is a viable solution. By then it'll have what, 210k on it.
