noise from front end

silverblue02 · 07-23-2003, 03:37 AM

I have a 2002 SL "silver blue edition",........The mileage is 24,500. In the past 2 months, I have taken the car back to Saturn 5 times to get the brakes worked on. They have replaced the front rotors 3 or 4 times,........until they finally figured out that the rotors kept warping due to the fact that the rear brakes were out of adjustment. Anyways to get to the reason Im posting a new thread,......I seem to have a little bird in the front end of my car (i.e.) the left front end squeeks, wether Im cruising, or braking. Could this be from the mechanic not packing the bearings after the rotor was installed?

The wheel bearings (front and rear) on your Saturn are sealed, and cannot be greased. As far as the squeak, take it back to your retailer - if you can make the noise happen, they will be able to find it.
