RPMs in a cadillac go up and down at high speed?

How do you change a wheel bearing 2001 cadillac?
same as any other car, pull the wheel off the spindle, take the bearing covers off, pry the old bearings out, there should be one on each side of the wheel, and inner and outer. removing the outer will require you to remove the dust cap. before you do this, make sure you buy some new bearings, and find out if they are greased. in my experience they are not. so get your self some bearing grease, and pack the bearings. do this by placeing a large glob of grease in one hand and pushing the bearing in to it with the other (there is a gap at the top or bottom of one side of the bearing to slide the grease in to) this is a fairly dirty process. make sure you grease them WELL!! then reinstall them.
Do today's car engines use babbitt bearings?

Will putting the wrong oil in your car cause damage?
The wrong oil is many times better than no oil. Just do it right next time.
That is partially true. If you have a high preformance auto like BMW, Porsche if you place a 10w 30 synthetic vs what is recommended 0w - 40 synthetic you can wear out the soft parts of your engine prematurely. This is due to oil not filming correctly over the parts. This can cause the engine to have excessive wear or catrostrophic damage. Both oils cost the same but an engine rebuild is not cheap.
Most importantly if the wrong oil is placed in a vehicle by you or someone else it will void most factory warranties . Always use the manufacturers recommended specs and check them.
