    pipol,

    lately ive noticed na may parang ugong yung gulong ko sa harap! although di gaanong maingay, noticeable sya kung takbo ko 80kph pataas, lalo na pag aspaltado ang daan. i suspect its wheel bearing! tanong ko lang: at this stage pwede ko pa ba syang ipa-repack, wag muna ireplace kung sira man sya - ala kasing budget eh! Pwede kayang maugong lang sya dahil wala ng grasa, o talagang wala ng pag-asa, sira na talaga bearing ko! (hu! hu! hu!) mahal pa naman labor nyan....:worried:

    tapos if ever na mag replace ako, can you recommend a good brand. my ride is a 97VTI... and lastly, advisable pa isang gulong lang ang pareplace ng bearing if ever sira na nga?

    txs mga peeps.....

    Are you definitely sure it's coming from the bearing and not the tire itself?

    Try to swap front-rear tires first and monitor its condition. If sound still persists, front end bearings can easily be repacked with grease. But for longer run and less down time, I would suggest that a change is inevitable. Pwede rin naman po palitan ang one side lang kung isa lang naman ang sira.

    txs master ungas,

    i'm not really sure if its the bearing! but this same thing happnd kasi sa gli ng officemate ko, first mahina lang ugong then lumala topos ng pacheck nya, durog na daw bearing nya!

    but i'll try to swap my tires and see what happens.... e kung sa gulong ang sira, ano kaya possibling tama nito? hindi balanse yung gulong ko? kasi bago pa naman yung tires ko! mag wa-one year palang... anu kaya?

    I've read some responses from other threads that tires are sometimes the culprit for the humming sound, especially Goodyear brand with a specific model.

    Maybe the noise was there and you weren't paying that much attention or the stereo playback was keeping your hearing senses busy. Until an officemate pointed out some noise from his wheel that made you checked your car.

    The noise sound becomes louder as the tires wear out.

    'yan din problema ng gen-1 CRV namin umugong din pag above 80 kph na takbo lalo na nga sa aspalto dami nga nagsasabi sa gulong daw good year din kasi kahit 1 year pa lang.
    nagpa-balance na ko and wheel alignment ganun pa rin.

    It's the tread of Goodyear that's causing it to make unwanted noise. No other way out but to change tires.
