Squeaky wheel...

My drivers side front wheel has been squeaking while I am driving on all surfaces lately. It doesn't squeak that loud, most of the time I can't hear it, unless the window is down and the music is low. I noticed on a couple turns that it didn't squeak then. Is it my wheel bearings? How easy is it to re-pack the wheel bearings on a Toyota's front wheels?
Thanks,
Bryan

Sure it aint just time to replace your brake pads? In order to repack your bearings, it is best to use a press for that. You can usually remove the hub and take it to a shop to save some $$$$. It could also be CV's but they usually don't squek. They more or less groan, creak, and make noises that really get your attention.
