Oh my god I got to get my wheel bearings replaced too...is this a special thing I should go to the dealers for or can most shops do this.
The dealership in MA will charge $1000 minimum for both rear bearings.

Anyhoo by coincidence I am moving to long island Sept for internship.
I'll be in East Meadow's hospital so was wondering if I should just take care of the wheel bearing before I go or look for an indy there in NY

I got my wheel bearings replaced for $375 per corner. That also included swapping out other suspension parts that were loose on the ground to get the hub off the car and R/R the bearing. $500 seems high considering the bearings are less than $60 each, but you live in the northeast where everything seems to cost more.
