I have a 1998 Cavalier. 2.4L, Automatic, 4 door.
I started getting a loud groaning noise when I was turning left. Now the car makes the noise while driving striaght. It gets louder as the car goes faster and seems to stop when the break is applied. I diagnosed it as a bad front left wheel bearing, I just needed another opinion before I tried to replace it.

I have a 97 Ford Contour. The other day, while driving, the car overheated. I thought I noticed a little smoke from the exhaust, but it could have just been dry salt on the road from the wonderful Ohio weather... anyhow, the car overheats and I don't have any hot air when the heater is on, it constantly blows out cold.
We changed the thermostat and now thinking it might be water pump. I did some research on here and the water pumps are known to go bad after 65,000 miles.
My car has 98,000 miles on it.
I'm having someone look at my car and I was told that it has white smoke out the exhaust. They can't look at my car for a few days... so I was wondering if anyone had any input on if they think it's my water pump, or some other problem.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!Read More
