Re: 2000 Lesabre suspension noise, 132K

You said the noise is coming from the right side and you replaced the LH side?

This is how you detect wheel bearing noise, which tends more to be a roaring sound....

Drive the vehicle up to speed where the noise is loudest, usually 30-40 mph...

Now on a straight away, SAFELY, turn the steering wheel slightly left and then slightly right......If the noise gets louder in one direction, and then lessens when turning in the opposite direction, then it usually is a bearing.....if this is the noise symptom you are hearing, you replaced the wrong bearing...
