Straight tutorial without drama or loud music. Shows what experienced hands and simple tools can accomplish. Good Job Mate!

Mate! This is by far my favorite video for the rear wheel bearing replacement. I may have legitimately watched about 10 different ways to do this. I'm 100% going with your version.

I don't even need to change my wheel bearings but watched the whole video and gave amazon about £150 for tools I don't need. Top man, quality video 👍

Good video as normal - as a mechanic myself I learn a lot from you -there’s a lot to be said for experience ! Cheers for the upload

Excellent tutorial!!! I really appreciate how you took your time and showed each step, not editing out any difficult areas like so many do, leaving the viewer bewildered as to how it happened... I'm in the states, so we'll see if I can get the same tools off our Amazon. Thanks again for a great video. I've subscribed, which I don't do too often with most channels, but you've earned it. Cheers!

I have to do my front bearings now and your video gave me the confidence I need after the disastrous rears I did. Thank you!

Have watched many a video on how to replace wheel hub bearings on BMWs and without blowing smoke up your, well you understand, this is by far the best one in terms of clarity, tool needed and sizes of sockets etc, etc. Cheers 👍🍺

I really like the 'slow-tutorial' style, thanks for your effort!

This is a fantastic BMW wheel bearing video! by far the best on KZfaq really enjoyed it had to watch it two or three times!! well done mate!

Great tutorial. I was scared to tackle this job and was being charged too much to have someone else do it. After watching this video, I feel confident that I will never have to pay to have wheel bearings replaced. Thank you for taking the time do make this video. Absolutely one of the best videos on KZfaq for this particular task.

What a brilliant clear concise video with really good audio with no witterings, brilliant..

I've watched a couple videos before yours and yours was the simplest/easiest way. Thank you.

Great job and thanks so much for this awesome video. Just replaced the wheel bearing on my E90 and watching this helped me a lot. Only thing I add is to make sure to remove the ABS sensor before pressing out the bearing. Mine got damaged and had to replace it. Thanks again.

Thoroughly enjoyed those last few seconds. Thanks for the video.

I watched this video so many times; i bought an impact gun (milwaukee too) ahah and the puller! i m about to start next week, im confident with this job because of you, thanks again. Hope you'll do more videos on bmw.

You make it look so easy!!!! 🤣 Best video on the process I've seen!!!! Hope mine goes this easy this weekend.

I start to do this job last night but I gave up then I search on KZfaq for some videos now the special tools are in order waiting for them for next weekend to do this job thank you very much very good video

Your amazing mate. Just want to say thanks out here from the states.this video is spot on. I’ll be tackling this job myself thanks to this motivating video.

Best video that you work so well with full details from beginning to the end. I want to thank you and give you grade A+. Cheer up.

Thanks very much for this video, it really was helpful and showed me a quicker way of doing this job, much appreciated and great work 👍👍

Nice vid some really helpful tips I’m just doing the bearing on the nsr on my 123d but have to drop the exhaust but watched this and it pretty much shows you exactly what you got to do

Brilliant execution sir! I get a real military vibe here, nicely done. Also thank you for making me feel good about the labor I will pay my mechanic to do this.

Your initial raising and support work is exactly what I do with my E21. I do stack the tyres under the spare tyre well in the back as extra insurance for not dropping down on me. The rear bearing work is a bit tedious but not too bad. Thanks for this!!

Great video mate, cheers. I'm about to attempt this on my 130i and this was a big help.

I started watching this video and it was almost comical at first because I did the same job on a 2007 X3. The truck came from the rust belt in the US and was no where as easy as you made it look. A friend of mine helped and smashed the axle with a sledge hammer mushroomed the axle. Then putting it back on banged in the end of the axle ruining the axle. I repaired it and changed the abs ring which was causing a whole host of problems on a awd anyway. The only thing I did differently was take the brakes off with the 2 15 mm bolts and not separate them. Installed the hub with the large bearing cup because it’s more stable and goes in straighter. I used a very long socket adapter and removed the e12 bolts on axle inner outside the car top of shaft the boot don’t get in the way and used a friend whose nickname is now Hammer. Great video!

Dang! You are a Master mechanic, my friend. You make an extremely costly and difficult job very approachable to me. Ty

Great, smart job. No knocking, no rush. Excellent.

Great video easy to follow and very informative.

Just replaced the rear wheel bearing on my E91 2009, this video helped a lot!

Thank you for giving me the confidence to take on this project!

Thanks chief for the well-detailed step by step video

Excellent tutorial & tool ref. Thanks!

Good job pal! I’m due to do the wheel bearings and new brake backing plates and handbrake shoes on my e46 once we get some good weather.

Awesome video!! Cheers from Chicago 😎

Thanks mate very helpful. One of the best video how to remove the wheel bearing, keep up the good work, thanks

I really liked this one! Nice and thorough. The only thing I would like to see walls torque settings. Especially the center nut very often have surprisingly light torque setting. Cool to see you are doing this with very basic tools in your driveway. Just like me.

Great job , nice tool list ,bearing splitter is a good one ,nice explanations too thanks

Excellent video, really very usefull indeed. Tackling mine later. Cheers

Extraordinary detail ! Super helpful !! I learned lots !!! Thanks mate . 👊🏼 🔥

Great work man! Your video helped me a lot with tool choice. Went to do this yesterday on my 3 series GT and since my diff is different type the axles don’t go out, I dismanteled the hand brake and took down the whole wheel bearing housing. It was not that big of a deal actually, 4 more bolts plus the handbrake cable and you are off. It was much easier doing the bearing removal and install on a table and with a vice.

Nice job on the video. Thank you!

Best video so far !

great video and you've helped me a few times :) and helping me again thanks fella

Excellent video, thank you so much.

Excelent video, you make it look so easy, you don’t even get dirty, thanks again for teaching us how to do it and what tools to use 👍

Super tutoriel sa m'a beaucoup aider merci Merci d avoir pris le temps pour nous montrer

Excellent, you certainly know your stuff 👍

Great work sir. Nicely done. ✌️

Thank you very much for this video, you made a really helpful video Great I appreciate you a lot and great work 👍👍 🛠

Brilliant video tutorial. Thanks!

Brilliant brilliant brilliant. Thank you so much for this.

Great video, great tools, need to get all that👍

Excellent video.... Superbly explained.👍

Brilliant video- ABS ring problem on my E88, this video has helped alot

Great video thanks. Going to do mine. Half the stuff is not in in amazon, so sourcing similar tools

Really good video I learn a lot thank you very much.

Nicely done! Thank you!

All time well spend. Great training tutorial 👍👏👌

Your content is quality keep it

Terrific video!!! Thank you!!

I like your jack ,i have the older model ,i was an AA patrol 10 years ago

Great Video. 10/10. now to head out and do the E36. Cheers

Really useful video top quality!

Thank you, sir. You just saved me 1700$ 👍🏼

So far the best video thanks sir

I dont even need wheel bearing replacements i just need the little hub off due to snapping the lug nut in half so this was helpful gonna start it in a week or 2

Great video Thanks it was a life saver

Great stuff mister, noting that type of bearing with 2 part inner race are loose by design until tightened (around 9:50 in) apart from that almost inconsequential point, excellent tutorial! :D Just trying to save someone a load of work if they're only changing the shaft, as it'll feel floppy soon as the nut is undone if inner races haven't stuck to the hub. If you have the bearing removal kit, always worth doing the bearing when changing the drive shaft anyway. Keep up the great work, inspiring me to upload a video of my own some day.

Great video thank you just ordered few tools and wheel bearing. Looking forward doing it. My bearing making similar sound and going over cat eyes makes metallic sound, have no play in wheel, brakes all ok

Good job. Good tip I came across for getting the race off is to put a socket in a vice, put the hub on the socket, heat the race with oxy or map and it just drops off. No more cutting them off (to be fair that one came off easy with the puller...get a lottery ticket quick)

It is always a good idea to put the Bearing into the Freezer before installing.

Many thanks dude, learned a lot

He is using a COPPER HAMMER . Don't do the job without one. I learned the hard way 😅😅😅. Best tutorial out there

Thank you, stumbled upon your channel when you fixed the squeaky suspension that I had too :) Am about to change the rear drive axle because of the ABS-ring, and was a little worried how to get the axle back into the hole(?), but seems like it was just to push it in according to this video, Makes the fix seem much do-able.

I wanted to add a word of caution to any DIY'ers attempting this. I'm working on replacing the rear wheel bearings on my '09 E82. My car has no undercarriage rust whatsoever, as it has spent most of its life in Southern Texas, and more recently in Southern California. I attempted removing the axle from the hub using multiple techniques, all ending in futility and/or broken tools. I'm down to the choice of trying a hydraulic press or buying brand new knuckles/axles/hubs/fasteners. My conclusion is that it's pure luck of the draw determining how straightforward it is to remove an axle. Just do a quick KZfaq search on stuck BMW axles. Suffice to say there a lot.

Perfekt gemacht👍

Great video that shows how to do it! Might have to do this on my 118d to soon. Btw, the nut on the driveshaft should be torqued to 145 nm + 45 degrees according to Bmw specs (for the driveshaft thats M24). 🙂

Lovely video, thank you!

Nice job Sir I'm impressed

hello it was a good help to remove bearing bwm 3 e36 325 all i liked a hug keep going

Great video and interesting to watch. Only comment I would make is to tighten those various nuts using a torque wrench. Those electric impact wrenches impart a MASSIVE amount of torque and it is super easy to over tighten bolts, particularly the main axle and the wheel studs!!!

buenisimo el video te felicito, 10 estrellas

Thanks for the detailed tutorial. Definitely something I could tackle at home but for me the cost of some of the tools I’d need vs paying my mechanic to do it doesn’t justify it. I understand tools will be there for next time but I wouldn’t use them often enough.

When removing the back disk brakes, I found slacking the handbrake pin in the wheel off and came off easy. Great video though

Fantastic, I just did my brakes today and noticed my bearings were a little dry sounding when spun by hand

Hi there mate- thanks for sharing your expertise. you made it look easy also very adroit with the tools, is that what you do for a day job? how hard was it putting back the splined shaft back on. Again , bravo to you sir ,cheers.

Been watching your videos lately and loving them, do you do other people's cars ? I'm gaining as much knowledge as I can at the moment because I want to do as many jobs on my bmw as I can , when needed

Really fantastic!! you do really make life easier for us ;) Cheers

good work mate

I have watched many videos to do this but your video is the only one gave me the confidence to do it as others mentioned. Thank You. From your other videos it seems you are local to Nottingham. Do you know anywhere I could hire the tools instead of buying them? Cheers

Great video. Tip for next time, use a blow torch to remove the bearing race, it'll literally fall straight off after a few seconds of heat. A lot easier than using the bearing splitter

Great vid!! I love your accent and when you said, “whoa, she’s tight!”

Amazing. Thank you. Do you have any link for the ratcheting adaptor for your big breaker bar? Any idea How much approx. would a garage charge for this job?

Good job men!!!!

어느나란진 모르지만 자가정비 잘봣어요.우리나란 wd40흔하게 쓰는데 없는 상황도 있네요 잘 정비하지만 시계차고 하는거 ㅎㅎㅎ 잼나네요

fantastic video, but don't forget of course if you don't use the right torque to tighten the wheel bearing bolts it will break more faster so I recommend 140 torque.

thank bro, now I know how to do it !

When I did my front bearing. I just took two bolts for bracket off and took caliper and rotor off all at once as a whole

Something worth keeping in mind is if the car has ABS the bearing can have a magnetic side which works with the wheel sensor. It’s not marked on the bearing so easiest way is to check with a small metal object like a paper clip. The magnetic side would usually go towards the back. I found this out after fitting and the car throwing up all kinds of errors. I had to buy another bearing and refit.

Boys, do not fuck up anything, its aint that easy, he just make it look easy, if ur kinda guy who gives up after having bolts stuck then just dont do it. And goodvideo man, as a mechanic u learned me alot today!
