The humming noise on the highway didn't follow the tires when I rotated them to the rear, so I'm pretty sure the front right wheel bearing is on its way out. It seems a little early to happen at 60k, but then again, this thing has lived a good part of its life inside the beltway, so I can't really blame it.
Looks like an easy DIY and the parts are fairly cheap. Gonna pop down to my shop over lunch today to lift it up and check it, then order the parts so I can knock it out this weekend. Last bearing I did on the BMW took me like 90 minutes, maybe I can do this one in 75. :thumbup:
