i figured out my problem a long time ago, it was not my wheel baerings but my brakes. the dealer (and i knew this) put some really garbage pads on the car and they where the culprit even when not breaking they would scream; just the rear ones. i replaced them with EBC green stuff and the brake stiffening kit, now no more noise and i can stop very quickly now. actually my tires cant keep up with the breaking force :(
