In over  30  years of VW's i've never had the pleasure of a wheel bearing
going, but I sure have replaced a few CV joints. Those little devils
allways made the same sqeeking sound when navigating a corner, or turning
to enter a street or driveway.....then when the wheels returned to the
straight position the sqeeking would stop. Always was one CV never 2 at
the same time but I allways replaced them in pairs....i like punishment.
Hope this helps.
