Fair enough (and true). There is a little history that you're probably unaware of: A year or so ago I had a little problem on cold, slick, wet asphalt, doing a complete 360 and smacking some curbing on the right side, the same side that the deteriorating wheel bearing is on. Not real hard, mind you, but you suppose that might have sped things up, bearing-wise?

I've wondered that. In any case, in a now 10-year old Boxster with 57K, I figure I'll have lots of other ways to spend my money in the next year or two. Don't get me wrong, I'm a big believer in preventative maintenance, but finances require I concentrate on maintaining those systems which, if ignored, surely and predictably lead to deterioration of the well-being of the car overall. Those 3 remaining non-noisy wheel bearings? Gonna run 'em til they die.
