Civic with noisy wheels
So I just traded my motorcycle in for a 1991 Honda Civic DX with 90k on it. It's a great little car and it's in pretty decent shape for its age. I named it the Red Skateboard because the wheels make a lot of noise. At speeds above 30mph, the wheels make more noise than the engine does. So obviously there is a problem. Based on issues with a previous car, I'm guessing that the wheel bearings are bad, but after looking at the Haynes manual I got for the car, I can't find anything about changing them. Does this car even have wheel bearings? If it's not the bearings, what could it be? CV joints? The noise is focused mostly in the front left wheel, but it may also be coming from the right wheel as well. So what's the deal? Is this something I should be able to fix? How much will it cost me to get someone else to fix it? Any ideas? Is there a mechanic in the house?
