Whenever I drive past 40-45mhp I hear this humming sound from either my rear or front driver side wheel. I am pretty sure its the wheel bearing. I was wondering if our cars need to have the bearing pressed on with a special machine, because my friend said some cars do and some don't. Does anyone know if the bearing needs to pressed on?

Same thing happened with me...ts not pressed on, its screwed on..i fixed mine in my autos shop...my autos teacher had a special socket tool that fit right over the bearing..then with the air gun we tightened and turned it liek a full 360 degrees using pure torque... but my problem was like at about 75mph my front end began to chake a little..then after 85 it was fine...after i tightened the wheele bearing it was perfect
