Hi All,
I recently had my car sit for 7 days and return to driving it, and when i first moved it, it felt stuck to the pavement then popped. Now I am getting a whirring, like I have a propeller prop in my front LH Wheel well.

I doubt the tires can get flat spots that quickly but it hasn't gone away and it is pretty severe. It has rained here a lot as well. Car is a 2010X with 65,000 miles AWD.

Is this consistent with a wheel bearing? It is a loud hum that comes and goes with speed and in a straight line. Should I try a tire rebalance or send it to Infiniti? I do have the CPO and am curious if they'll cover this?

Sounds like a bad bearing. Does this noise get louder making turns? Did you check any grease leakage around the area? It might be bad CV joint.

Ya I'm going to take it in, I'll let you know if this repair is covered and what the results are.

It was a bad Drivers Side Front wheel bearing, Infiniti fixed it for free..gave me a loaner and washed her up..not a bad deal at all
