Kind of Funny

I am running Nokian WR 225/45/17 year round on my aero (since last fall). When I researched the board on these tires some people said they got so noisy during the summer months that it sounded like a wheel bearing going out. Well, as it has gotten hot this summer sure enough they started sounding loud like a wheel bearing was going out. Just for fun I had it checked out at my 60k service - sure enough I did have a front right wheel bearing that was bad! Got it replaced and the tires are still pretty quiet.
60k service at the dealer went well - I took a ala cart approach since I flushed the tranny at 39 k and only had a year on the brake fluid and coolant. I had the cabin, air and fuel filter replaced, plugs, drive belt (pulleys were all in great shape)tire rotation and thorough inspection for $550. Got the bearing replaced at my indy for $150 vs the $240 the dealer wanted - The bearing came from Napa so hopefully it will last longer than the oem.
