Mini cooper r56 front wheel bearing

In this video I change the front wheel bearing on my Mini cooper s r56

Very good Ben. Actually it was interesting watching you deal with those small bolts that had held on the back plate - drilling them and forcing in a star point until you had sufficient purchase to ease them out 🙂

Thanks for this video Ben. I need to replace one on my R56 and doing this without removing the strut looks the best way to go. Those brake disc shields are crap and cost around £40 each. I have managed to chisel the mounting screws loose before and then replace them with M5 s/steel dome head screws from Screwfix. The disc retaining screws are also a nightmare if they are stuck. They obviously dont use anti seize compound at build. If you are keeping the car I would spray the new bearing assy before fitting as these are untreated steel.

Is it necessary to adjust the track after performing this work?

[@timwright848]

As your not taking the track rod off there should be no need to have the tracking done

Driving with only one brake shield? Life must be too long for you.

Lavoro troppo secco. Non ingrassi mai nulla.
