Having driven his car, it sounds very much like a bad bearing rather than the CVs, since the noise is speed dependant but doesn't change with steering. My question was whether this car had unitized hubs or serviceable bearings, and that appears to have been answered. Since I owe Twerp a fair amount of wrench time for help he's given me, when replacing these is there any particular type of bearing that offers better rolling resistance than others? (In other words, is there any opportunity here for an ecomod while we are at it?) At the very least we'll get a good look at the brake condition while we are in there..
