First check tyre tread, remove objects in tread as these can cause some of the symptoms, others are the bearing and tracking and steering idler, also can be a lose wheel, another thing to check is the discs look for broken or warn pads stones can get in and damage the pad or twist the pad in turn can make a rumbel. ( if you brake and the rumble stop it can be this part that's wrong) bearings and tracking jack up the wheel and test with a wiggle from 12-6 and 9 to 3 on the wheel if makes a sound or moves excessively then this can be the bearing has failed and needs replacing if this is fine check the the tracking and idler pull on the tracking arm if you feel a clunk then its weak and needs replacing same on idler. hope this helps

SOURCE: suspected rear wheel bearing problem,

Hi Billy

If it is just a wheel breaing then it's not to much to worry about, they are fairly cheap and easy to do, the other bearing is from the 4 wheel drive system is is somewhat more problematic worst case is the diff / gearbox may have failed, does the wheel drive work well? is the noise more or less when in 2 wheel?

there is a few possiblities so get back to me with more info and I will be able to help.

Regards

Dan

Noise from rear of 2001 Hyundai accent.

Take it to a different tire store, and ask them to look for a separated belt or an out-of-round tire. The store that balance your tires should have caught that. A bent wheel is another possibility

Or: On a lift, slowly rotate the tire, standing 6-8 feet behind the car and watch the edges of the tread -- see if they "wobble" from side to side. That's a bad tire.

Or: Rotate tires front to back and see if the problem shows up in the steering wheel.

I'm hearing a rumbling noise, sounds like a wheel bearing. When i lift the jeep up off the ground and check the bearings, by rotating the wheels, they all sound good. It is a 4x4 and when I bought it there...

When you take the weight off the bearing it will stop making the noise. Grab a friend,go for a drive and see if you can narrow down which wheel is making the noise.Good luck

I feel a slight thud in the steering and hear a light thud when I turn a corner; seems to happen most when the car has just started driving; is this an issue of power steering fluids, something in the rack...

This is most likely the steering knuckle or tie rod end that needs grease or most likley replacement. If your hear clunk when turning, then it is proabably the tie rod ends. If clunks while driving, then it may be the balljoints.
