Not that I have noticed, I will try and run some tests tomorrow.

The sticker on my 4.2 was $54,000 back in 2001. This has to be a fairly well insulated vehicle. I cannot imagine even the worst set of tires being so loud that I can carely hear my cell phone while driving.

each bearing should be less that $100 if I remember right. but then add labor

Jack up the car one wheel at a time and spin it by hand. You may be able to hear it or feel it.

i have an 05 s4 b6 w/31k miles. there is a murmur/rotational noise at 20-40 mph and at faster speeds annoying enough that the noise level competes to hear the radio. i suspect faster speeds, higher pitch. i tried two dealers and they say it is tires although when i hit different road types at different speeds, i do hear the same murmur and the tire noise change is very evident. the two dealers do not agree and insist it is tires although they will not guarantee if i change that the noise will go away. any advice out there? it's annoying and disappointing for a car of this cost. i'm going to try and test drive other s4's of similar age although not sure how much time i can spare...

noisy, noisy.

The ES100s stick great, though. but I could nto live with them long, not on a "over the road" car.
Maybe on a track car.
