The wheels on your car could be on too tight, try loosening them and then it won't be so hard on the bearings so much.

What are the causes of oedema in congestive heart failure?

Oedema with congestive heart failure typically occurs when there has been right sided heart failure. Left sided HF can, however, often also lead to right sided heart failure. Basically, when RSHF occurs, the ventricle is not contracting with the same strength that it once used to. Overtime, this causes the backflow of blood from the right ventricle, artrium and into the vessels supplying this structure. This backflow causes increased pressure of blood in the vessels which are bringing blood to the heart. So, you get what is called 'increased capillary hydrostatic pressure' which just means increased pressure within the peripheral capillaries due to increased blood backflow. This causes transudate formation - some of the plasma from the capillaries is pushed out and into the interstitial spaces (spaces within the cells). This causes increased build up of fluid within the interstitial spaces and therefore oedema.

What causes the alternator to whine when you turn on the lights?

Bearing failure. Have the alternator tested. describe the whine - is it proportional to the speed? It oculd be because of the load and the charging - how is your battery condition?

What causes the tensioner pulley to go bad?

There are three sources to belt tensioner failure. The first is through routine wear and tear of the drive system, which is inevitable. Other failure include failure of the pulley bearing resulting in noise, and weakening of the spring loaded assembly itself.

Can big offset wheels cause wheel bearing failure?

The perfect wheel has zero offset. That is, the surface of the wheel bolted to the hub is equidistant from both the interior and exterior edges of the wheel. The greater the offset from " zero", the less "linear the load is on the wheel bearing. Instead of pressing down at 90 degrees to the bearing, the weight is now preloaded to the side of the bearing center line. This causes un-natural wear on the bearing, which can cut down the bearing life by a significant amount. Big Torquer
