04 Mercury Grand Marquis GS 4.6l V8----bad wheel bearing?
I think I know what's going on, but I'm not a professional. Just looking for a second opinion. I believe I've got a bad wheel bearing. Here's a video of play and sound when spinning by hand.
Its been making a humming/grinding noise that is speed dependent and gets worse when turning if that helps.
Also, chime in if you think someone that does basic maintenance like oil, belt, spark plug changes and has changed things like ignition coils should take this on or if I should leave it to professionals. I know I would have to buy a hub puller, I usually just follow what I find on YouTube.
