Great video! I have a 2012 Audi A3 8P and used this video as a guide. One tip for A3 8P owners, you DO NOT need to remove the caliper bracket to remove the rotor. There is plenty of room that the rotor can be easily guided around the bracket.

happy543210 did you get the proper vw tool to make this comment about vw specialty tools, or were you able to manage with something around the garage? But seriously, they kind of have to have a specialty tool for everything to make the manufacturing process as quick and easy as possible while allowing the job to be done by the least skilled, aka inexpensive, labor to do the work in a manner that cannot damage the new vehicle, in the factory. Therefore there will be a lot of “special tools” but really a mechanic doesn’t need all of them per se. Just specific ones like timing tools and more technical tools while the special dust cap tool for MKV cars can be a chisel (or straight screwdriver, let’s me honest) and hammer.

I still have nightmares of the torches (for heating the hub up) and rust. Ty for the tip not to use power tools, its arm day ;-) and this all started with the ABS/Squeel Tires on Pavement lights on. Used the Vagcom to verify the sensors are working. The ring on one WB was half gone. Doing both as you suggested. 150k miles.

I didn't have a breaker bar my buddy had it and was on vacation so I improvised. Car was on all 4 jack stands for Halden service at the ttime. Just put my 1/2 ratchet on and had it parallel and used my audi jack stand to slowly break my 24 mm 12 point bolt loose. Easy peasy lemon squeezy.. hope this helps someone one day...also make sure you use one hand to keep the socket in place so it does strip and a weird angle.

I installed a new bearing. During the process of installation I hit the bearing several times with the hammer. Actually I hammered the hub (with a plastic hammer though) it almost in 1/3, then used press, but didn't know I need to use a lip on the bottom. The center of the bearing came off on the bottom like for 1 mm. I placed the lip and made it even again with the hammer. The hub is rotating very good, but gives a slight grinding noise, not like the other one I replaced before, which rotates with more efforts, but doesn't make any sound. Should I replace that bearing with the slight grinding sound? Probably I shouldn't hammer it that much (though with the soft hammer). Thank you for the informative film.

In the output flange that the axles bolt to, there is space in between the axle and the output transaxle flange. There is tons of grease in there, is that safe to pack with wheel bearing grease? Haynes manual has no info on this and wanted to get advice from a VW tech. What spec of grease should go between that axle and flange? Thanks in advance, you’ve always been the man at VWs!

Hey Charles! Thanks for this video, did that job last weekend to replace the splash guard. Unfortunately I had to drill the brake disc "position" screw because I stripped the head. Is this screw necessary? I don't think so but I think that the caliper is a bit stuck now, the wheel is not turning freely (didn't have the tool to push back the piston). Thanks PS: for anyone attempting this job, don't do like me. Be sure to remove that screw BEFORE removing the caliper or the disc will turn when you try to unscrew it.

I did the brakes all around on my VW Rabbit a few months ago, and I stripped 3 out of 4 of the rotor set screws, just like you did for the one. The screw is totally not necessary because your wheel and lug bolts hold the rotor onto the hub. So the screw is not needed at all. If your caliper is stuck, then that might be an issue with the caliper itself. Hope this helps. -Anthony

I dab a bit of copper grease on mine every time now to make sure it doesn't happen in the future.

Do you not have to add grease with the new bearing?

Great video, but just a small question as far as diagnosis is concerned. I've got a Mk7.5 GTI. Hit a pothole recently which was bad enough to bend the wheel. Replaced the wheels, but I still have a bit of a rumble sound AND some vibration/shaking at various speeds. Would a damaged hub cause both the sound and vibration or is it likely I'm looking for something else as well? I've had two suspension diagnostics and an alignment done since replacing the wheel and they say there's nothing wrong with the suspension.

@humblemechanic how similar or different is replacing the front wheel bearings compared to the rears?
@HumbleMechanic
@HumbleMechanic 5 жыл бұрын
The front has a few more steps. You have to remove the brakes, axle bolt, and there are 4 bolts holding it on. Not too much harder just a few more steps.

Just did my B5A4 wagon rear again, the other one lasted only a month or two 😓 and the hub cost me nearly $300.

I can't believe that vw is this less of complicated than stupid Audi. I recently did same job to the front of my 2009 A4, it did a trick but I still have vibrations coming from same areas but only on higher speeds. My suspicion is alignment, or could it be bent cv axles? Just looking where to start next. Like you vids. Thanks

The bearing bolt won't come loose, even with a 24" breaker bar. Treated over several days with PB Blaster, and hammering the face, but still stuck. I will probably need to heat it with a torch, but don't like using a flame close to the gas tank. Does anyone have any good ideas? Thanks

My rabbit appears to have a speed sensor (like the one on your vehicle) but the original bearing has a partitioned metal ring around the back of it that passes very close to the sensor. The replacement bearings did not have this. Is this a problem?

I need to do this on my mk5, there is a 30mm or 32mm inner diameter for the bearing so make sure you get the correct size for anyone doing this job! I found out the hard way haha..

Brandon Montgomery mine is a 2008 and needed the smaller 30mm I.D bearing. Not really sure how to work out which size you need, don’t know if it’s the model or the year. My car is a GTTDI which I think has the same setup as a GTI suspension wise.

@@bendude6748 - if you look at the back of the wheel hub face the 32mm is a smooth one, the 30mm has a pattern cast into it - sadly you need to remove the hub before you can see the back of the hub face.

Is a bad rear wheel bearing also related to vibrations? I have a golf 6 and for some reason it vibrates and shakes from the back for no reason after I hit a speed above 80km/h. This phenomenon is intermitent, it doesn’t happen all the time. I don’t really know what the problem is. I know some of you will say that the tires are bad, but if the tires are bad it should vibrate all the time, right?

You can break loose the bolt holding the bearing before you Jack the car up , then after replacing the new bearing and bolt you can do the half then after you replace the wheel and lower the car down in the ground to make it easier just fyi

Did you notice that the wheel bearing looks dry? If you stop the video you can see that the bearing balls are all shiny and not full with grease. I just received my SKF rear wheel bearing and it looks almost dry as well. I know it doesn't need to be overloaded but it seems a bit to short on it?
