⚠ Attention! The mistake was made in the video at 9:00 minutes. The tightening torque is 200 Nm, not 75 Nm. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

[@jessehenry2507]

200nm for the axle bolt of the hub bolts?

[@amarlizde]

This is definitely not true!! Torque for bolt for caliper holder can not be 200!!! You should correct this before someone damage their threads or brake the bolts.

[@radhamistry5439]

Very educational learnt a lot.

[@RoBeRtO..]

Perfect video. Keep it up the good work!

[@johnenright6185]

Brilliant information. Thanks a lot. 👏

Awesome video!!! Made changing my hub assembly 1,000 times easier. Thank you so much for posting!!!

[@yaakcon]

Wow! Thank you so much. I think I am going to invest in tools and start doing these myself from now on.

[@yeevipe8681]

Thank you so much for this vid, your saving money a lot of money!

[@autodocuk]

Hi! Thank you for sharing your opinion. We are glad this video was helpful to you!

[@abdelbasetjledi]

Great job❤

[@mcombsemail]

Thanks for the video. I was mainly needing to know what tools to order but this gave me an idea of what I was in for. For people not familiar with european cars the XZN bits are also called triple-square bits, and make sure your 27mm for the center axle bolt is a 12-point.

[@996superhawk996]

My axle bolt is 24mm. 2013 VW Passat TDI 2.0

[@jayk9216]

@@996superhawk996 life saver, lol. Thank you

[@game4alaughman]

Where can I buy the T27 for removing disc shield…. Oh wait a min I’ll just use my T30 instead

[@kapenakahapea8837]

Great video thanks

[@LilBoozie14]

A1 Knowledge. GREAT VIDEO. 👌

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for sharing your opinion with us.

[@ashen6969]

Hi Auto Doc, Ashen from South Africa here. This video can probably teach a teenager how to change bearings with ease because of this video. Big Ups

[@autodocuk]

Thanks for your positive comment! Stay with us!

[@jagdeepsinghmankoo1042]

Good video

[@autodocuk]

Thanks for your positive comment! Stay with us!

[@richardstokes755]

Excellent video be careful not to get copper grease on the wheel stud threads 120Nm is a dry torque.

[@tfmanso1]

Very good video, BAD use of torque wrench.

[@csoled11]

Why?

[@game4alaughman]

@@csoled11 just noticed when cracking 4 stud wheel bearing bolts, so yeah bad use pal

[@tamazerd]

@@csoled11 The guy in the video don't know how to use it, he just keeps on pulling past the click when you are supposed to stop.

[@Thomasjcolbert82]

I need to say that the way that part came out was so lucky for you. I had to take my hubs to a shop have them pressed out. That’s how rusted the bearings were. This video is great, but you should maybe add a part incase the bearing is seized. Is there a proper puller for this style bearing?

[@raulserrano351]

American here, the xzn same as triple square? Here the 21mm seems to fit properly. Using size smaller #14 to small. Would 21mm be the equivalent trying not strip it.

[@autodocuk]

We do not have such information, we recommend that you consult your mechanic.

[@996superhawk996]

I'm sure you've already figured this out but for anyone else, the XZNis the same as triple square,

[@dax8476]

Much better backround music on his one , otherwise great!!

[@tabzr]

How would you know which wheel bearing is the problem one?

[@christopherhicks1463]

Always replace them in pairs!

[@mrFROSTYfoo]

Same procedure for 2013 VW Passat TDI?

[@autodocuk]

Hi! In general, the replacement will be similar, the only thing 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

[@IsiahGomes]

Is this the same torque specs as a 2012 Passat 2.5l se?

[@autodocuk]

It is not possible to answer your question definately, this information you can find in the technical documentation for the repair of your car.

[@jasonwilber673]

Why did you not post the torque for the CV shaft to hub bearing bolt!?

[@autodocuk]

starting at 10:20 minutes of the video, you can see this information.

[@emilrolfs8036]

Can't see where the xzn socket bit #6 is used?

[@autodocuk]

Hi! Bit #6 of socket xzn is not used in this video.

[@emilrolfs8036]

It's in the list of required tools.

[@dominikabak6128]

Is it same on Passat B8 Saloon?

[@autodocuk]

Hi! In general, the replacement will be similar, the only thing is that it may differ slightly 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.

[@jasono2139]

Uummmm... 8:25 ....didn't think you were ever suppose to tighten a drive axle bolt with an impact wrench unless you're wanting to damage your CV joints. Furthermore, the axle bolts are supposedly torque-to-yield... 10:20 which means when you install them (new), it's 195N*m, then 1/2 turn (180) degrees. If this isn't a by-the-book repair, perhaps you should state that in the introduction.

[@migueltorres5694]

How much would this repair cost in USD

[@autodocuk]

We do not have such information, we recommend that you consult your mechanic.

[@DashCamSerbia]

Why don't you make a complete printed service manuals, like Haynes? Modern Afa Romeos don't have such manuals. I would pay good money to buy them.

[@autodocuk]

Thanks for your valuable recommendation. It will be useful for us and our viewers. AUTODOC

[@user-os9wn1hy9e]

gool

[@abderrazakmammeri6327]

Et pour un b8 si la même pièce

[@autodocuk]

Bonjour ! En général, le remplacement sera le même, seul le design de votre voiture peut varier légèrement. Pour des informations plus précises, reportez-vous à la documentation technique de la voiture ou contactez le service de maintenance.

[@richardharries5825]

Not sure if your comment drops down. Regarding the torque wrench setting. as others make various comments. But you need to make sure it stays precisely where it is. So everyone can see it’s 200nm. And not 75nm as in the video. Because there are some idiots that will stick to the video. Regardless of your comment. Making others aware that you have got the nm torque wrench 🔧 settings wrong. And that’s 9mins within this video. 200NM AND ITS NOT 75NM As in the video.

[@autodocuk]

Yes, you are right, it will be useful for us. Thanks for your attention.

[@ryanvtec3885]

your axle nut size is incorrect its actually a 24 (12 point socket not the #27 i now wasted my money on

[@autodocuk]

We are sure that your comment will be useful for many of our viewers.

[@matthewdowney2136]

Yep. I just bought a 27mm also. And I’m still stuck. 😩

[@GarazTomka]

Omg. Copper spray with alu parts...😭
