Ford Mondeo Mk5 Rear Wheel Bearing PLUS 10K SUB'S THANX

10,000 of us tuned in to your humour, amazing skills and knowledge Alan 👍🏻 oh and a little bit of Miss M 🤪

cheers😜

This is a great channel, with humour, knowledge and Miss M, and you fully deserve the gratitude that we have for your videos👍 Congrats and keep up the great work👍👍

[@johnfanning8570]

On my 2008 Ford Mondeo I have had to replace both rear bearings. So I was surprised to hear you say in your experience that you had never had to replace any. There was an interval of about two years when the second bearing had to be replaced. You are right about cost of spares as here in Ireland we have 23% VAT on almost everything which makes buying spares from Ford ver expensive. You are right also about the noise coming from worn bearings as I could not wait to get this problem repaired. Love your site as with 320,000kms on my car I look up your site for information every time.

[@alanfrancis9225]

Doing rear hubs in a few weeks. Your videos are amazing xx

Good luck!!😊

I like watching your vids, and I haven't even got a Mondeo. Congrats!

lol thank you

[@chadvanstone]

I'll second that! I thoroughly enjoy your channel..!

[@adamtoms2726]

Don't own a Mondeo but have driven a few over the years. My fave being the MK3 Mondeo. I think they've aged beautifully, seem to be reasonably resistant to rust, and the 2.0 TDCI felt like a rocket ship, the amount of torque from low revs and the effortless cruising speeds. You can see why they were so popular. With the quality and content of your videos, I'm sure 20k subscribers, won't take long!

[@blondieman63]

Happy 10k subs, well done Alan and the team (Monica), Thank Christ they put bolts on the rear hub!!, instead of those cap head torx bolts on the mk4...., Keep posting Alan love the videos.....

Congrats on your 10K subscribers. I am not a mechanic, but do work on cars occasionally. It's a good job you don't work on Toyota Prius hub bearings. The front ones are hard to remove, due to galvanic corrosion. I did a friends wheel bearing last week and used a sledge hammer with iron ingot as a drift. Laying the hub carrier on a metal support on the ground, it took only a few hefty blows with the sledge hammer to remove the bearing. I have a 10 ton press but could not bring it with me. Plus the previous time I tried to use the press on the other bearing, it didn't budge. Same with a garage 20 ton press! I learnt the disc removal technique using a bolt, a long time ago. Never fails. I watch a lot of mechanic videos, and your is entertaining as well as educational. Make of car does not matter as some parts are similar in design. Keep the videos coming. 👍👍

[@alan4x]

After watching all these videos I would consider buying a Mk5 Mondeo. Congratulations on hitting 10k subs.

[@CatBroiler]

What a conicidence! You know, I was just thinking about replacing the rear wheel bearings on my Volvo C30 just yesterday, since I'll be down there replacing the disks, pads, and the dust cover (which quite literally disintegrated when I was washing the alloys with my flexible toilet brush). The bearings need to come off to replace the dust covers. They're only £50 or so a pop, and the old ones might be tired after 115k or so miles.

[@marklittler784]

Those flexible toilet brushes have got a lot to answer to.

[@alan4x]

lol

[@CatBroiler]

@Kris Nicholson The abs sensors are actually integrated into the bearing, so you get a new sensor with the bearing. But I'll leave them for now

sounds like it was faulty from new to fail at that mileage but thanks for letting us know...you are at this moment the only person to have replaced a rear bearing

I replaced both my rear bearings on my 2009 Mondeo at 100k miles. Used cheap aftermarket eBay ones. Big mistake. Have had to replace both again after less than 10,000 miles

[@wtwtch123]

I have Galaxy 2013year WA6 similar platform and same type bearings. At 146K one rear bearing went. Maybe heavier car or the fact is taxi and does city miles or something ? I had one replaced at Ford for nearly £300. Now at 151K other side rear bearing went. Time to follow your tips and do it myself. Hope my Delphi scanner will wind calipers back tho :)

[@masterblaster5170]

Does it matter what side you replace it with? Meaning can you use a used bearing that came off the left side and put it on the right side?

[@steverpcb]

Well done, now you can ask KZbin for a Silver play button ! How about a recall video covering the items that the mk5 has been recalled for, the latest one is a battery sensor corrosion issue ? Do all the cars go back to ford of do they issue you with a van load of the parts when there is a recall ?

[@alan4x]

i will look into it but i have received zero recalls

[@steverpcb]

@@alan4x I have had 3 recalls on my 16 plate diesel, a clip on the fuel line, software for more bells and whistles when the engine overheats due to low coolant, and the battery sensor one. Potential leakage of battery acid around the battery negative terminal could cause the battery monitoring sensor to fail. Over time growth of copper sulphate may accumulate. This, in turn, could provide a conductive layer underneath the Battery Monitoring Sensor, creating a low resistance to ground. The increased current flow, due to low resistance, could cause the surrounding material to heat up to a point where it ignites, resulting in a fire. The Ford Mondeo models affected by this recall were manufactured between 13 February 2014 and 11 February 2019. Ford recall code: 18P11

that has been on my list when the right car comes along but if you have red you really need to replace it with the green hydraulic fluid

They break at the turning/holding point of suppession at front or the rear wall mount at the back! (and at the broken state the car thinks that wheel go's 255Miles or Km/h at that moment...) one of those rear bearing ABS sensors has bean bad allso so if you find bad wireing then don't stop there! Make sure, the ABS sensor in bearing is working too ;) Nickname "We need one day more ;)"EDIT: Damn, i ripple of that surface rust. ..makes life easy if just can brush it away. p.s. there is short air gun's that has the "nuts" to do that job in the car ;) EDIT2: 10:50 Eather the bearings here comes with sensor or the bearing side of the sensors has failed on ours at least ones but yes more the wires gos and cut off.. EDIT3: Bearing was good!!!!!!!!!! ABS sensor not so much... EDIT4: Yes ABS module hade the problem rigth but they only showed the way! The problem Could be the "ABS control module" or wiring to the sensor/ sensor ring/unit. Yeah! You need really test all those parts before calling it..

Hi Alan, I bought a 2016 mondeo after watching all your videos and am delighted with it. Do the rear shock mounts ever wear and rattle? my car has a rattle like loose trim in the rear passenger side (around the c pillar) over anything other than a smooth road but the shock doesn't look like it's leaking and I can't find the source, it's driving me nuts. Thanks for the vids Alan!

[@alan4x]

never had a rear shock mount fail..depends if your rattle is an interior trim or under the vehicle
