I have 35k in my EX500 was thinking about replacing the bearings as they are only about 100 bucks total for the bearings and seals.
No it wasn't loose at all, or make any noise. I could feel it ever so slightly at very low speeds, it just didn't feel smooth. Plus I also check them every time I have the wheels off for a tire change or whatever else, and I could feel it starting to get a little rough. Once I popped the axle seal out and saw the one side was all rusty....
