So I was driving today and my dad notice that the front end was making a weird sound. It gets worse as you speed up and its like a wa wa wa wa sound, thats abotu the best i can discribe it, because you can't really hear it from the driver side, so I'm thinking it has something to do with the front passenger wheel, possibly a wheel bearing.
The sound gets faster as you accelerate, and as you slow down it seems to slow down as well. Does anyone know what this could be? Any help is greatly appreciated, Thanks. -Colin -------------------- -Protection mode, For when your amp tries to blow its load. 1995 Toyota Celica GTS - Daily Driver 1999 Chevy Cavalier - Winter Beater 1994 Honda Civic CX Hatchback - Dead My Celica! |

The wa wa wa sounds familiar. I had wa wa sounds on the driver side and when I slowed down the wa wa slowed down too. I mostly got the wa wa's from turning. I got rid of mine by changing the anti-roll bar bushings in the front, the ones on the crossmember (cheap only about 10 bucks each -need 2 of em. When you change em check that the bar is centered. The anit-roll bar can really cause a lot of noise havoc I wacked my driver side wheel real hard a while back jumping a curb in the middle of a turn and I think I pushing the bar to one side. Change em' anyway , bushings get old and my turning response really improved -all because the old bushings were elongated.
