Never forget to torque your lugnuts.

Or else you'll think you'll have a bad wheel bearing and obsess over that for a day until you remember you didn't tighten the lugs and you go out and your driver side front wheel is almost falling off.

AH! Don't feel bad. I've done that often enough (well not too often) that I recognize the sound of a loose wheel and can distinguish it from a bad wheel bearing

Sounds like you need to loosen a lug nut on all your wheels. Might get a 10% increase in FE
