- 2007 explorer xlt
ok, we have the 2007 4x4 explorer. This thing has been one mystery after another but getting there. Had one wheel bearing done by pro and the $700 bill told my hubby, the other one, ill do myself! He put it in and all was well for about 2 days... Started to hear a whining esp after driving for a few minutes and when get up around 30mph as I am slowing down to stop hear a click, click, click. I do notice that when the car is cold, it's not as bad but worsens as driving. It was sure seeming like we had a bad bearing so he changed it again (Timken both times) I thought we were good but right off the bat, same issue. the little details... I notice on acceleration off a stop as long as im on the gas, it's not humming but when I even come off accelerator at all, it starts humming and continues until stop . A little different with swirving but not consistant. I drive it for a living so am able to pay attention to the little things....
hubby was gonna by an axle but Im seeing u joints, cv joints, ball joints, spindles as possibilities and hate replacing stuff that is not right. SO, ill take it to the experts!
