Could be you have the wheel bearings too tight. there are spects of the tightness of them using a Dial Indicator. this thread has some good info, or do a search on wheel bearing Pre-Load.
Wheel bearing preload tool When I removed the Rotors I used an air impact gun, an electric one will work also. Charlie

Using the dial indicator would be best of course, but I have heard an indy say "tighten the nut down just and bit more than you would on the same vintage American car" not much good unless your an old mechanic

where to get timken bearings?
Does anybody have a part number for the Timken bearings? I need both inner and outer, and the respective races. My w123 needs them, one of the inner bearings is collapsed on one side.
I need either a part number for Timkens or to know where you guys got them, I can't find a trustworthy site that stocks them anywhere. Also is Meyle consider sub-par for bearings?
