problem #1

Mar 012012

Uplander LS 3.9L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 150,000 miles

Van slowly started to hum like it had snow tires, but did not have snow tire on. Progress to figure what the problem is...not so sure. No clicking sound of CV joint. Reminds me of a 5 ton truck with Army tires on it. Still drives ok. Slight pull to the right. But steering wheel vibrates a bit. Dash board is developing a buzzing due to the vibration up front. Changed tires thinking I had to agressive of tread..but it continued with all season tires.

Realy stumped...

Update from Jun 6, 2012: So we had the van down to a local shop. The wheel bearing was shot. It fell apart in the Mech. hands as they took tire off. Lucky for us, the wheel did not pop off. We love this van. For a vehicle that has over 150,000 and we are aiming to get 200,000 miles. Maybe I should have seen the GM guy sooner.

Thanks.
