i took uapart rotao on other side to conparr turning ability. Noticed two screws holding rotor to hub; the other side does NOT have these screws in place...sooo im guessing rotor is wobbling when im driving and hitting break pad every revolution or so....piss!

those 2 screws would not have any effect on the driveability of the car... they are there from factory to hold the rotor in place during the assembly process, but aside from that have no real mandatory application other than what I just said...

I FINALLY checked runout on my rotors. All of them are within specs, EXCEPT my front drivers side. Its funny though, because my brakes FEEL fine...Im gonna get it resurfaced or replaced. Ill keep it posted.


.....the battle has just begun....

Sooooooo the guy whom I borrowed the dial indicator from used a magnet. I bough a clamp type dial indicator, cleaned my rotors up(again), and tested front rotors on the SAME hub. Tada!!! NO runout. Well, a little, but they are within specs. Word of advice, don't get magnetic arms for dials because they blow...hard. In a ragefull frenzy, pulled and yanked on everything...giggidy. I found something interesting. My front drivers side hub has 0 play. But further up the axle, it splines into, what I assume is a bearing support thing. I wiggled it and there is some play. There is also play on the outer spline on passenger side and spline that goes into transaxle. I made a video.

The phone actually cuts out at the end...I corrected myself: The passenger hub DOES have play at cv joint(spline?) going into the hub. The drivers side spline(cv joint lol?) does NOT have play. I say again: BOTH HUBS HAVE 0 PLAY! The only play I notice is at that center bearing, the passenger side axle going into transaxle and the passenger side axle going into hub.

Beating a dead horse to death.

Here is another video. I made this one. I finally got my phone working right. You may need to turn volume up. Since I cleaned rotors/pads(kinda gunked up), I can here the noise thats been bothering me more clearly. I'm fairly confident at this point that it is a wheel bearing. give it a listen and tell me what you think. I would really appreciate it....
