my 05 G35x has developed a load truck tire noise from the front area (wheel bearing, I think) Kinda strange as when I purchased the car 4 years ago they replaced the right side under warranty and now at 112k miles the other side is prolly gone! anyone else have a similar problem and is it expensive?

 

Had same problem on my 05x @ about same mileage/ Just make sure you order correct bearing ( different than RWD's ) check Riverside and any decent machine shop should be able to press it for you.

yah so this driver side bearing is only available at infiniti and now I have to wait because its $290 for the part! wtf?

 

ouch... yea i didn't see one for the AWD.

RWD fronts are with HUB is only $212 and its just a bolt-in type of thing. I found RWD bearings for the rear for $50. $290 for the front is rape.

 

What mileage do the bearings usually go out at?

 

$185 shipped at Riverside Infiniti.

If you can buy the bearing and hub pressed together already, you can DIY. Otherwise, buy the bearing and bring it to a shop. Cost me $130 for labor and I can't remember how much the part was, but I did buy it from the stealership.
