i hope the fix has been done by another shop now and they used OE bearings and have (and know how to use) the tools to set dynamic friction values right.
if they did not set it right you will have the same problem again, soon!
That was my thought, what bearing company of any repute doesn't at least laser etch a name to avoid counterfeit claims?

wtf
