[@dellybeanhead]

Excellent video. Thank you. No stupid intro, music etc just straight to the point, accurate and clear.

[@rashidchaudhry7876]

OMG in this video this man show us how easy is this process only need some but the garage guy charge me £70 unbelievable.

[@rupertaitken3114]

Spot on and very helpful. I like the way you didn’t use fancy expensive tools ordinary people don’t have at home but those we do! 😀 perhaps you could have given the torque setting for the bearing nut but it seems right is good.

[@vinceking719]

thank you for showing the diy way. alot of youtubers forget people come here to learn how to do things with your home tools

[@benking9503]

Great video! Diy friendly, great sound and visual, I'm doing the wife's tomorrow and will be keeping you near bye for any points of reference I may need, thankyou!

[@EzerArthiom]

This video is actually very useful! I was searching for exact moments pointed at this video!

[@robertgilmour1903]

Good video, easy to follow and nothing to distract from the topic at hand.

[@horse_lovers123]

Doing this job tomorrow. Most informative, thank you.

[@kes31]

Nice clear video. Thanks for posting. Will be doing this task on wifes Micra this weekend.

[@twotanks6427]

Thanks - just did mine following you instructions and it was an easy job. Thanks

[@fahedzahran]

Finally!! Please do more videos on this type of Micra! I had this issues last year and I had to take it to the garage. On a different subject, How to reduce the wind noise inside the Micra. on the motorway it can be really load and noisy, I can hear wheel, wind, engine noise. Also to know that on 70 Mile per Hour I get 3500 RPM which is really load! I always get a headache after a long day trip. Please help!

[@mk1jack]

Thanks for giving me the encouragement to do it on my own

[@bigtrev19691]

Great description on how to do wheel bearings.

[@wisdomplat4orm]

Very straightforward thanks.

[@zahidshafi4925]

great video very well explained

[@Blasterman124]

Just watched your video and done exactly as you did. Thanks

[@bshy851]

Just what I was looking for 10/10 chap.

[@neillchippett655]

Clear and concise. Excellent.

[@kurtmilton6742]

Best step by step video well explained thank you very much 👍

[@missylellie7495]

thanks, really does help so many people!

[@ExpertSpark]

Fantastic instructional video, thank you

[@garyanderson9034]

Great video, thanks! The solution at 3.25 for removing the old bearing saved me a few quid :-)

[@davidm7655]

Thanks, This has give me the confidence to give this a go on my Note.

[@e-car-techgmbh4571]

Well done!Thanks a lot. Your video was very helpful.

[@i.fishtank]

Amazing, thank you, I have to do the same on the Mrs Micra.

[@moeen1988]

Really nice explanation, thanks

[@brendonrutherford5118]

Interesting video & a job well done considering all of the various appropriate tools were not utilised for home instructional purposes!! (fine) However & of some concern was the fact that "NO SAFETY GLASSES" were worn, "NO NOSE/MOUTH FILTER"was used against the "POISONOUS" dust that was floating around in the atmosphere when the drum was initially removed??? Also as a new bearing was being fitted there was no hand/finger protection (gloves) from possible dirt/dust contamination etc, etc.!! I'm currently learning this stuff at a training institution & with respect, if my tutor had of caught me implementing this level of wokmanship he would have booted my arse forthwith & given me low marks & rightfully so!! Sure these aspects I've pointed out (& with respect) may not be absolutely necessary but they duly display a good & totally professional level of competence!! Might not have been the way Grandad used to do it but in line with modern vehicle servicing methods & practices, they are without a doubt the right & proper way to do this type of work!! Safety is "PARAMOUNT" & it doesn't matter if it is in the home or the workshop as it makes no difference to any resulting accident!! As we all have to learn whatever please accept this critique with grace!!! As a side issue, we also put wheel bearings that are to be inserted into a vehicle & try & leave them overnight (or even a few hours) into a fridge/freezer to cool the bearings & therefore make their insertion so much easier!! (it surely works as the buggers simply fly in) 😀😁😋😛👌👌

[@fouafgalaxy0]

Thank you very much for this beatiful video

[@BenJamminJones1]

Tanks very much for the video! Very helpful :-) Keep up the good work mate! cheers, Ben

[@CarlosTorres-em4cu]

Very good video, fast and just the necesary information. Thanks for this help.

[@adrianrouse3619]

Thanks for posting! Great video

[@davidrussell3890]

Great vid. There must be a torque setting for the nut as your tight may be too tight

[@camturnbull556]

Awesome video.

[@rashidchaudhry7876]

Amazing man thanks for the great tip

[@marekkalafa2830]

Thank you so much for help 🙂

[@neviboy29]

[@aashiqismail4454]

Thank you for sharing!

[@jonathansmith5958]

[@Oh-Jay52]

you can buy the ring on ebay for about £8 ( and it taps on til flush )

[@jasonmills3503]

Bang on. Cheers boss 👍

[@Bertrum123]

Great that thanks nice and simple

[@krishh2096]

Good still you could have used plastic hammer while hammering bearing or some flat plate over the hammering area to insert the bearing perfectly in the position Still your job is good

[@magicwands1]

great video my friend is this the same for a nissan note ntec 1500 diesel please best wishes ,,,patrick

[@987jasy]

What kind of socket did you use to remove the outer bearing race?

[@jarrydspenceley297]

Howzit man , doing my bearing change, what size is that socket that you used to remove old sleeve and does the socket sit on a flat surface or in the sleeve tappered part ( the curved inside) Hope to hear back soon and thank you for such a useful video 💪💪💪

[@richnelpitout-kunene4281]

Does all the Nissan micra k12 models differ with the wheel bearing size?

[@saidbouki5942]

Many thanks very helpful

[@carlmoffatt2728]

I have a Micra 03 plate i have a noise coming from the front passenger wheel but it only appears in around 30-40mpd and in excess of this speed but its not a humming it sounds like a card does in the spokes of a bycicle wheel but get louder when i turn to the right would this also be a similar issue if it is the wheel bearing??

[@facemobb1]

great video great help thanks

[@andreasteel]

Which size is the wrenxh for the big nut?

[@Oh-Jay52]

30mm

[@mohanreddy9413]

Does same bearing fit for Datsun GO

[@rajakhan570]

can you show us something about central locking problems in gx 1.0 k11, mine one giving trouble of strange sort.

[@benking9503]

Well! ... My wife's wasn't as easy as this! I had to fabricate my own press to get the old one out! Wouldn't budge with just a hammer

[@petergallagher3595]

Mine had the same problem 2 hours of smashing the thing and no movement .Ended up buying a full rear drum with bearing included as was a good price .

[@brootswaymbisback.9956]

great vid dude

[@genejordan3695]

Great video! thanks for the tutorial! Is this the same process for the front ball bearing?

[@donkurt4032]

Can you help ship a bearing here in The Philippines

[@MohamedOmar-yz6xq]

I have Nissan 2004 can I use this video to do mine .. where I can buy the part and where I can buy the tools exactly what you used

[@jeffmee763]

eBay .com done

[@southwaveswimming4105]

Thanks

[@anthonyskilton8634]

Thank you for this video but is there a torque setting for the hub nut please?

[@MetalMike50]

175 nm according to the workshop manual

[@luisturulo]

thank you.

[@Burnersforvanlife]

Cheers dude!

[@EDImaciek]

good job

[@karolpowazka6047]

Thanks!

[@1mancare]

What size socket did you use

[@1mancare]

To knock the inertial bearing race out

[@MetalMike50]

32 mm works well

[@rashidchaudhry7876]

And just the same wheel, but I have still noise coming and he said probably need to replace other wheel as well

[@alanmccabe4172]

When replacing the drums, does it mater what way round you press the bearings in?

[@MetalMike50]

No the bearings are symmetrical

[@B0M0A0K]

Great video, do you not need to pack the bearing with grease before reassembly?

[@SNORKYMEDIA]

they are sealed bearings

[@mariusm5187]

Great video :)

[@singyip5520]

well done

[@czeester]

thanks for the video :) just wondering if you know whether 2004 model would have exactly same hubs/drums

[@diycarmaintenanceandrepair3764]

Look at the video description and intro screen, which explain, "...Nissan Micra, 3rd generation 2003-2010."

[@alanhabib6462]

DIY Car Maintenance and Repair Guide

[@JohnBullas]

Excellent video, is the big nut "grunt tight" or torqued up to any particular value? As it looks like an uber-nylok I guess the former?

[@MetalMike50]

175 nm according to the user manual. A new nyloc nut is provided in most bearing kits.

[@mikemooney5791]

What size socket did you use to knock out housing, thanks

[@Medveten1]

diameter 50 mm +/- 1 mm

[@MetalMike50]

I used a 32 mm, that works well. Can be larger.

[@mrfiux]

Ouch at 3:35, did you get your thumb on that?

[@alexandrabetke]

Das Lager hat zwei Seiten, die Beschriftung muss nach außen zeigen. Der Ferritring (ABS-Ring) darf nicht beschädigt werden, er sollte sauber und frei von Metallspänen sein. Die Radmutter sollte ersetzt werden und muss mit ca. 200 Nm angezogen werden.

[@rt9934]

@ Peters Schlagerbox. Thank you Peters, very useful information about which way to turn the bearing. 'The bearing has two sides, the lettering must face outwards'. Sehr geschätzt, vielen Dank und die besten Grüße und Grüße aus Irland

[@Sirricardo6]

Sadly mine bearing outer was stuck so be prepared to find someone with a press.

[@kimblejury4923]

I'm surprised you didn't pack some grease into the bearing housing.

[@juandef4115]

blowing the brakes is no good.. brakw cleaner and a wire brush maybe more useful in some places

[@spideog7799]

Sound

[@dolphin082]

Whats the god damn torque

[@AnitaStanford]

in some ways the bearing change good but no attension paid to cleaness and the blowing of brake dust is not on by any ones standards thanks any way but profesionlism is important.

[@keizersoze8112]

Tirty mm what is that

[@johnlayhe7253]

not using axle stand, discharging brake dust into the atmosphere, very bad

[@harwoods11]

Did I just see you removed the rear brake drum whilst the car was held up Only on the jack???? That's not a very good way to show your subscribers the correct way to do this or any other repair that entails lifting the vehicle. You must know this???

[@richards9407]

Not much help to me. Mine is the RH bearing. Thanks anyway.

[@mikemooney5791]

What size socket did you use to knock out housing, thanks

[@MetalMike50]

32 mm or larger works well

[@gkireland7796]

Nice one
