Not knowing what vehicle you have I would suspect the replacement bearings are of poor quality or they are installed incorrectly.

you do not use a socket you use a wheel bearing puller to remove it from the hub Putting a right size socket into it and hitting it with a hammer can pop the bearing out, but it can also damage it so its advised to get the right tools. size 30 mm for the wheel nut and the bearing puller

Where is the abs sensor located on a 2002 grand am?

The ABS sensor is located in the front wheel bearing. The is one on either side, so you will need a mechanic to pull the error code out of the car's computer to determine which side it is. You must replace the entire wheel bearing to fix the sensor, but chances are that if the sensor goes the wheel bearing is leaking. The wheel bearing is a sealed unit and should not leak, but over time, water, grime, and wear, it may begin to no longer be sealed. Buy a new wheel bearing and install it your self if you want. All you have to do is take off the wheel, the brake caliper, the rotor, and finally the bearing itself.


What is the low dragging noise caused by with your 1997 Daewoo Lanos It only happens when you are braking mostly at low speeds?

It is usually a wheel bearing that does this, one or more of your wheel bearings is worn out. When you apply the brakes they set the wheel hub off balance and therefore the wheel drags because of the bearing being so worn. To check this take the wheel rim off and try and rock the wheel hub, if it feels loose or it makes sound, your bearing is worn and you would have to replace it, this is quite a difficult job if you don't have the right tools though. A worn wheel bearing can also put strain on your power steering system if it is a front wheel bearing that is worn.


If your whining bearing sound stops when you turn your wheel right what does this mean?
