Why not the axles, while you are dis-assembling up to them. Only another $150, and 60 minutes?

Originally you said the problem was local supplier could only get ABS type. If you can get stuff from Amazon, you can get it from other sources on the Internets. Pretty expensive experiment!:dancingmickey :

You never did say, is the car in Iraq? Or just you?


I'm pretty sure both he and the car are in Iraq..... not every internet supplier is shipping to that country, if any are. Thus the problem.

really - the problem.
But any one of the members of this forum could buy the necessary part and send it to Iraq to anasbio.
I do not see obstacles to help a colleague.
I regret that in Russia is not possible to buy HHR - part. I could help anasbio - Walk to the post office is not difficult. Just as many of you help me. I will not hide, I've received several packages from some of you, guys. It is very nice and I am grateful to my friends.

Hey Guys.
I replaced the bearing and it fit perfectly.
I just remove the sensor and directly fit into the car.
thank you

But now you have an ABS light on your dash, right?

so just to be clear , my 2007 has under 100,000 miles has that weird noise coming from the front end, and the wheel bearing hubs are under warrenty? my dealer said the tires are making the noise ( Hankooks they put on before I purchased the HHR) so I think I'll approach a diffent dealer and see what they say!! My 1993 Pontiac Dustbuster (Trans Sport) went 530,000 miles and never needed the wheel bearing hubs replaced !

I don't think they had the same type front hub bearings on 93 Pontiacs.

So why didn't you demand that they fix the tire issue, if they installed them before purchase and they claim that's the problem and they presumably are a Hankook dealer? Is there more going on here than meets the eye?
