How to change front wheel bearing on OPEL ASTRA G TUTORIAL | AUTODOC

[@mikelitoris9716]

Thank you for uploading videos like this, it has saved me thousands of euros using your guides and doing the work myself!

[@autodocuk]

[@AmigoAmigo-w5p]

Every one can be a mechanic. Or ANYTHING THEY WANT. All they need is videos like this to spread knowledge

[@RolandasVyniautas]

Yeah, good luck loosening the axle nut with a tie rod lol. These videos are good instructions, but in 95% of cases you're gonna run into problems like the bearing being seized in, the nuts and bolts stripped out, etc. Problem solving is what seperates a mechanic from an amateur enthusiast

[@mcgilluk]

great bit scared doing but after seeing this film brill gave me confidence cool he makes it look soo easy

[@AJB67]

Great Tutorial thanks. Just what I needed to swap out the speed sensor hub (passenger side) on my non ABS 2002 SXi 1.6. I won't even have to scrabble through the toolbox for the correct size sockets. Awesome!

Thank you for this although I suspect that when I do mine there will be a few more grazed knuckles and some swearing.

Never seen a tyre iron used like that before but, if it works why not. Thanks for the upload.

[@richardrichard5409]

Brilliant job, many thanks for the upload😎👍

There's absolutely no need to disconnect the ball joint. You can open the torx screws with a 13 mm spanner.

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for your feedback! It is hard to oppose your suggestion, because in majority of cases it is pretty complecated to removed the ball joint off the axle knuckle. It is much easier to just put off three screws that hold a ball joint on a track control arm. Best regards, Autodoc!

[@sekopiski]

@@autodocuk Well, the ball joint is riveted onto the control arm from the factory, so unless the ball joint has been replaced before, there are no screws to remove.

[@paulbradford8240]

I have to replace the ABS hub and thought I had read there was no need to disconnect the ball joint. Thanks for confirming this.

[@roystenhaskins8487]

Hi can you make a video of how to replace rings and bearings on a astra pls

[@autodocuk]

Please check out this video list kzbin.info/aero/PLWep5LzT0sxkLx87fbtHjo9mX4bKsZns4

[@noecre]

Does this video applies for all ASTRA G's. Mine is a Saloon 20DI Model (Year 1999) and lately I'm hearing a humming noise at around 60kmh and suspecting of a worn bearing

[@autodocuk]

In general, the replacement will be similar, the only thing that may be slightly different in the design features of your car. More accurate information can be obtained in the technical documentation for the car or by contacting the service.

[@eltonmarcus472]

Hi can you please make totorials on replacing sensors on this car and how to reset ecu please

[@autodocuk]

We will take into account your request, but for now we recommend watching other videos on OPEL ASTRA G - kzbin.info/aero/PLWep5LzT0sxkLx87fbtHjo9mX4bKsZns4 AUTODOC

How about a caliper replacement? mine seems to be staying engaged all the time creating a glowing red hot disc

[@voxeoltd2218]

Great tutorial, thanks.

[@autodocuk]

[@viggenwagen7033]

Nice work! Im just afraid that the hexaedrics and torx arent that easy to loosen in real life to my girlfriends `03 Astra.. :D

[@autodocuk]

[@shinyharley]

Hi, very good. Any torque settings?

[@autodocuk]

Each bolt connection has its torque. What unit exactly are you interested in? Best regards, Autodoc.

[@sergioredblack1424]

So clean, and profesional ver y good.

USE A HUB PULLING TOOL. Revising my comment. The tutorial was useful in what is required to be done, but please everyone, don't be fooled by how easy it looks. On my Astra G, the brake disc could not be removed without taking off the complete calliper mounting. The drive shaft WILL NOT pop out with the light tap of a hammer. I actually messed up the thread of the drive shaft by doing that and have had to order a new cv joint.👿 USE A HUB PULLING TOOL. As someone else says, torque settings would be a very useful addition to this tutorial.

[@autodocuk]

Unfortunately, it is not possible to specify the tightening torque, this information can be found in the technical documentation for the repair of your car.

[@95kevn]

Really helpful but, no torque wrench?

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for your comment. In the new videos, we have already added this information. Best Regards, Autodoc team.

[@michaelfearn83]

Hi. Will this be the same procedure for replacing front bearings on a 2006 vectra 2. Thanks.

[@autodocuk]

Principle and operation sequence are the same . Best regards, Autodoc.

[@chrismac4441]

Oh hell no. I'll take it to a garage. If it looks fiddly for this pro, I don't have the patience to do it myself. Very good tutorial though. Thanks

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for the feedback! We are glad that our tutorial was useful for you. Best regards, Autodoc.

[@noxious89123]

This tutorial makes it look far easier than reality. Hub nut came straight off, drive shaft straight out of the hub without any problems... In real life, the splines will be rusted in place.

[@MadiliaSarwary]

Whats torque nm for bolt bearing?

[@autodocuk]

You can find this information in your vehicle's repair manual.

[@tankyg8231]

Just did this fix. Drive shaft popped out so good i did not need to remove nothing more than the breaks 😅

[@siralexu]

Nut to drive shaft torque sequece: tighten to 120nm then loosen retorque to 20nm +90°

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for your feedbaсk! You are absolutely right: some steps were omitted. Our new videos will surely show this information for our viewers and also you will see how to use a torque wrench with all the necessary torques values. However, torques depend on a car design. Best regards, Autodoc.

[@theboss4936]

Hi, do you know where can I buy one of those breaker bars he's using starting from 5:49?

Polish car mechanic?

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for the feedback! We hope that our tutorial will be helpful for you. Best regards, Autodoc.

[@matthewsalmon8194]

That was a question - not feedback

[@strangeperson700]

Should have asked in Polish language haha.

[@ozzisauto6573]

@@strangeperson700 I guess he is Ukrainian =) anyway, Slavonic mechanic, no emotion, no smile....just serious working face =)))

[@lesstephenson325]

The only thing that I would disagree with is, he should have torqued the drive shaft nut

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for your feedaback.You are right, you need to tighten the central nut already when the car is on the ground with a torque wrench, in the new videos we have already corrected this moment. Best regards,Autodoc!

[@abubakarharuna9523]

your process is amazing. this is my type of car. pls can you avail me a contact of spare part seller? cos i can't find new bearing in Nigeria. thank you

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for the feedback! If you are interested in any spare parts for your car, you can contact a specialist of our company www.autodoc.co.uk/services/contact Best regards, Autodoc.

[@abubakarharuna9523]

autodoc.co.uk You are the best. I hope the parts are originals?

[@bumbleo8993]

Good luck if you think bearing will just fall away with a gentle tap 😂

[@autodocuk]

We cannot show all the nuances and problems when replacing, this is all individual and it is not always possible to solve them at home. To avoid this, we always recommend that replacements be made at specialized car services.

[@switchest26]

What the hub nut?...didn't bully it off at all....and also what's with the shaft spline just popping out?....is this Astra from another planet?....might have paid to lube the guide pins whilst about it......nice outfit!

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for the feedback! The video is informative and shows only the general principles of the constitution and the operation of the car and it is in no way to be taken as a manual for repair and maintenance. Best Regards, Autodoc

[@scottgibson7534]

Wow did not clean all the surfaces for the new hub before fitting, no locktite on new hub bolts, reused lower wishbone bolt a no no back street garage.

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for your feedback! You are absolutely right - one needs to do it in practice , but our video is just informative, and to save time, some necessary procedures were omitted. Best regards, Autodoc.

[@scottgibson7534]

@@autodocuk It may be informative and I applaud you here , but in critical applications like this, it would be nice to have audio as parts are replaced like clean surfaces apply medium locktight, tighten to 66 lbt ft then stage 2 angle then stage 3 angle, also drive hub nut same procedure, As someone no doubt without mechanical knowledge may stumble across this video and say ahh that,s how you do it, with dire after effect.

[@richardrichard5409]

What not reuse the ball joint bolt, it's not a stretch bolt or torque to yield?

[@spawntohell]

Against: hammer on the driveshaft... a cheap press is a far better idea... hammer on the ball joint? really autodoc? and maybe you ask yourselves why 14 negatives...

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for your feedback! We appreciate your attention to the details. Our experts will look into it. Stay tuned for more videos in the days ahead. Best regards, Autodoc!
