The last few weeks Blondie, my 2001 VW GTI, has been growling. The growling was coming from the back of the car. First, I checked to see if the rear wheel bearings were the problem - jacked the car up and shook and rolled and put pressure on the wheels, but they seemed smooth and fine. Next I thought maybe the rear tires were the problem, even though they only had 12K miles on them and they looked fine, so I bought new rear tires. The new tires seemed to help, but within a day the growl was back as loud as ever.
Finally, on Tuesday, Flash and I installed new rear wheel bearings and my car is now quiet again. It's so nice to be able to hear the stereo again. :)
