| I have a new clutch and it does the same thing sometimes. It's the syncros. I've had it checked out. Just need to use a little force to get it into gear. |

Video look at this wheel bearing is dying? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJFnXpE3Nps
My front left wheel bearing made noise, too, but it became quiet when driving in wet weather.
I replaced the bearing when I replaced the CV joints. |

| I can't tell really from the video. I would recommend putting the tire back on for leverage and seeing if there's play in all corners of the tire. A very good sign of a bad wheel bearing is constant noise or humming from a wheel when you're driving 30mph+ (48 k/ph). Excessive heat can cause them to go bad too, to keep in mind, I had a stuck caliper which made a lot of heat, and that bearing went in a short amount of time. |

You're absolutely right, caliper jammed, and I rode on jammed caliper 4 mile  |
