hi all... newbie here :)... i have a red 2000 tib 5 speed, here recently ive noticed a kinda roaring sound coming from my right rear. it gets louder the faster i go. i changed the tires around thinking that waas it and it still does it. is it the bearing in the right rear wheel doing it ? is this a common prob. on the tib's ? mine has 95k on it. i called autozone and they said its a hub type, like 50 bucks, is it hard to replace ? is there a tiburon service manual avail. for download ?
also... my air bag light is on, is there a way to check it or reset the light ?

thank you for any help i would appreciate it !!!!

It probably is the bearings but is could also be worn pads scraping the rotor.

if its a roaring sound its the wheelbearing - airbag light needs to be scan to get code - dealer for that

yes, its the wheel bearing, i've changed the driver side so far, i have 80K on mine, and the passanger side is starting to go too. its not hard to change, as long as you know how to get the caliper off, its a very simple change. probably one of the nice things hyundai did with their tibbys. and if one is going, you're better off doing them both at the same time, which is what i should have done. amazingly though, you can go for quite a while on a bad wheel bearing, not recommended though.

Yeah, i agree, it sounds like the Wheel bearing.. I had one, kinda sounded like a deep hum, and got louder as i went faster. I'm not sure about a downloadable manual, but, you might be able to get one at autozone for like 15 bucks...

you can only get a manual at the dealer but it like $100.00-$150.00.Autozone and Advance auto parts dont have them. Try ebay they might be a little cheaper if you can find one
