Hey dirtydave! It could be that the bearing hasn't worn in yet. The same thing happens with new tires, so I suspect the same with bearings (they both roll). It could be one of the things that MobilOne suggested, which are not difficult to fix. You're still 100% above EPA, which is outstanding bud! You have my candy for sure!

Things i need to do:
fix the ground on the battery in the trunk
actually mount it to the car not just shove things next to it
find a shop brave / stupid enough to get the lug nuts off the passenger tire
(hardest part)
get it towed back to the house
take all that apart
replace the wheel studs, lug nuts, hub, bearing , tie rod end, ball joint, brake pads, rotor, caliper. cv joint
CEL
P0301 P0302 P0303 P0304
not in this weather with this empty wallet
sorry everyone serious things going on in my life at this time.
I have missed saving a friends life and a job interview because I just simply couldn't get to where I needed to be.
MobilOne, BabyDiesel thanks for the support.

Dave,
Hi, My empathy on your not being able to help your friend. Perhaps it was meant to be this way. Same with the job interview.
I once was in a class where the professor had done a lot of study on stress and its causes. He found that frustration, disappointment, and other set backs caused stress. No surprise there. But, he also found that the stress burns up vitamin C and the loss of the vitamin C causes depression. So, his recommendation was to take vitamin C whenever stressed or depressed. He said 3 or 4 grams a day. Can't take too much as C is a water soluble vitamin and any excess is just urinated out.
Hope your weather in Baltimore is better than mine in Atlanta. Take care.

That's sad news. You've got my sympathies.

CEL was from bad / old gas and/or coil packs.
