What bearings are you having trouble with. I am also going to take in my car soon. It has:
1. Leaking engine dampers
2. Possibly leaking hydraulic steering system. At only 16,000 miles the resevoir was almost empty.
3. In the rear of the car you can hear a squeeking/chirping sound, maybe the fuel pump.
4. A large bulge on one the run flat.
6. Sometimes the clutch chatters.

Driver's side driveshaft makes a clicking or chirping noise on acceleration and later on deceleration, too. Mine has had the "click" since about 5k miles. It doesn't seem to hurt anything, but doesn't inspire confidence. One person I know is on their third.
Was the power steering reservoir full when you started? The dealer left the lid loose on mine and could easily lost fluid if I had not found it.

Ya, it sounds like a big metal bar is banging sround inside the suspension...

I think replacement is the only real fix...
In other news, I apparently get migraines... Really bad ones where my vision darkens and almost turns into tunnel vision while i feel on the verge of puking... Not fun. Now I'm nursing a really bad headache that even vicodin wont kick back...
I've had that same noise as well. Pulled the wheel, removed the left front wheel nut, made sure the 1/2 shaft was fully seated in the steering knuckle, re-tourqed (sp?) to 134lbs and the click went away for about a month, now it is back but not as loud. There was a "how to" posted on NAM......not sure where.

I can hardly wait for February. I have the "New Every Two" plan with Verizon and I hate my current phone. I got mine just before the Razr came out and wish I had waited. Only a few months to wait, though.

Too bad the Verizon razr is a POS... No SIM card.

What I mean is that no verizon phones have SIM cards. Thats why you can;t use a Verizon phone in europe.

The reason you can't use a Verizon phone in Europe is that it uses CDMA and not GSM.

Phone guy said that the SIM card was what allowed other companies to do it....
