Thank you. The noise does not sound like wheel bearing. The noise is like the wheel robbing into something. I will check the fuel filter. Somebody suguested to check the transmission selenoid but I am not sure if my car has one or if it has another name. I don't think the trans. Has Ben serviced thank your for the suggestion.
