Did you ever get it done? I have a Nissan Rogue 2015 that's making a terrifying howling noise when accelerating and a friend told me it's a bad bearing. Any tips?

@@Pingaheimer Yes, I did the job, and it came off successfully with assistance from the advice in this video. Some tips: Have plenty of GOOD penetrating oil. I use Kano Kroil, obtained via mail order; it's the best I know. A Harbor Freight or Northern Tool impact wrench and metric socket set is inexpensive and makes the job go much, much easier. You'll need a 32mm socket for the big nut at the end of the axle. Also, it's best to plan on replacing the castle nut and cotter pin which holds it in place (Nissan dealer, although your auto parts store might have a Dornan equivalent). Have it in hand before beginning the job. Personally I'd prefer using an OEM-spec bearing assembly over the Cheap Chinese Crap which was all that my parents could afford at the time...but, well, a month after the job was completed a semi sideswiped them and the Rogue was totaled (they're fine). Would have been wasted money in the end. Good luck! Edit: As they say in the video, be very very careful of that ABS sensor and wire!

No problem! Be sure to watch the entire video for key details!

Good tip!!

Super unfortunate that pretty much every car has that issue. Thanks for watching! Glad it helped you out!

If you are asking how i knew the wheel bearing needed to be replaced, the answer is, the right front had a grinding/howling sound at highway speeds. So the owner asked me to replace bother wheel bearings just for future maintenance.

It books for roughly 1hr so it all depends on the mechanics rates. Anywhere from 90-120 dollars.

Done it probably 50 times before and after on multiple brands of vehicles. Never a problem as long as the tension is kept to a minimum.

@@FreddysCarsaAndChaos Wow. I can't think of a response that isn't unprofessional or impolite.

@@Stratifying well when you start posting repair videos you can do them your way? Sounds fair to me.

@@FreddysCarsaAndChaos I've been reparing cars professionally for 40 years, and have had my own shop for 26. Master ASE and L1 since '88. I don't have the time or the desire to be a "UTube Star" like you. I'm also sometimes too busy fixing other shop's F'ups and "repairs."

@@Stratifying proud of you. You can stop commenting any time you know that right. This is a friendly channel. Why are you watching this video if you are a master tech.

It might be the song that's playing in the background. Sorry about that.

@@FreddysCarsaAndChaos otherwise excellent video. Thank you.

@@jamesjohnson8661 no problem! Thanks for the feedback it will be noted.
