Wheel Bearing? - Toyota Yaris Forums

I'm not sure on the cost, i've never had a wheel bearing replaced...nor am I a mechanic.

It sounds like it's probably your front right side wheel bearing.

Bear in mind, i'm just making a guess based on what I know. Even some of the more experienced people will be just guessing, it's almost impossible to tell without actually being there to see/hear/smell/feel it.

Indeed. I'm wondering if there is any simple test I can do to see if it is indeed the wheel bearing? I would take it in but I am working tomorrow.

I dunno how brave you are but you could try this.
Seems a bit dangerous but it looks like it works.
