Tech Tip: Cartridge Wheel Bearing Replacement Greenville NC
When faced with any noise complaints, take the time to test-drive the car with the customer, if that’s possible. This step not only allows you to confirm the noise you’re chasing, but it also gives you the opportunity to point out any other issues that the customer hasn’t noticed. You may hear the familiar knocking sound of loose sway bar links or bushings that the customer will be glad to have repaired once you point out it isn’t too expensive of a problem to fix.

Many times, the customer complaint will send you down the wrong path if you let it. We've heard complaints from exhaust leaks, to tire balance, to "it just doesn't sound right," that have ended up being bad wheel bearings.
