loud humming noise Sign In

2003 toyota highlander all wheel drive. there is a loud humming noise coming from front. i spun the wheels listening for any noise did not hear any, so i held the tires at the 6 and 12 positions and there was a little bit of play in the drivers side wheel. i was wondering if the front axle hub sub-assembly could make the same noise as a axle hub bearing?

What exactly is the difference between those 2 parts.

the axle hub sub assembly is the piece that the wheel bolts to and it is in front of the piece where the wheel bearing is housed i don't know if there is a bearing in there also

It's all part of the hub assembly. The hub bearing is pressed into the knuckle and the hub plate is pressed into the hub bearing.
