2 foot deep puddle? thats a frikkin lake, tall as your tire! what does the hub sensor do? my hos got 110000km on it now and i haven't changed mine yet. or maybe they have to be done and i don't know it cuz i don't know what they are.

The road had sunk very bad in the winter in one spot and filled with snow that was packed down so you couldn't tell. Then when it melted, it just looked like your usual puddle but i sunk wayyyy down into that bish. Luckly I don't have a CAI.

How can you tell if it needs to be changed or not?.. irregular tire wear, constantly warping rotors, or something?

Lol.. its a sensor. If you get your low trac and/or tire pressure lights on all the time.

Surprisingly, I never had any problems with hubs. That was like the only thing on my car that didn't break. I had to get the drivers side front replaced after I hit a deer, but there was a ton of damage to the car up there, so I wasn't surprised.

Yeah, I'm about to break 90,000 miles, and I've never had a problem with the hubs.

Got about 85k miles on my ho now, and the low trac light comes on sometimes when i move in reverse, especially when turning in reverse. <_< Gonna be changing it pretty soon I bet. Is this just the sensor, or the whole hub assembly?

Same as Youngblood, here only with 74k miles. Is it expensive? :(
Does it also cause the car to pull? i'm having lots of that especially at high speeds.

nah, its not pullin....its just gettin annoying cuz its just the sensor, and not the bearing...so all 3 dummy lights come on with all those damn chimes and crap...gets annoying <_<
