Rear Wheel Bearing Issue

Hello All,

Despite my love for the little car (2002 Boxster S), she still breaks down more than I would like her to. Car has now begun to make a sort of whop - whop - whop sound with each revolution of the rear tire..... A good independant has diagnosed the issue as a failing passenger side wheel bearing. Wants about $500.00 to replace it. Car has 46K Miles and CPO Warantee.... (2) local dealers, after much deliberation say "its not covered" I checked my workshop manual and the job looks to require more than a few special tools......

????????????

Any thoughts on how I am going to get out of this one????

Keep in mid this is after laying out $1,400.00 for new Michelin Pilots and I still need an alignment for $200-$300......

Help, Oh Great Ones, Help.

I still love the little car, I do, but I loved it more before the factory Warantee wore off......
