In this video I replace a noisy and worn O/S/F (front right) wheel bearing unit on my 2010 Audi A3 8P 1.6TDI Sportback. I also replace the centre hub bolt and bearing mounting bolts.
As the front brake pads and discs (rotors) were heavily worn, these were replaced at the same time. I had set out to bleed the brakes/change the brake fluid but during this work I identified a corroded ferrule on a brake flexi hose, so this will be completed in another video once I have replaced the hose.
I also resolved a number plate (license plate) lamp issue, where one was dim and causing a bulb warning to show on the dashboard. This was traced to a poor connection causing high resistance.
Parts used:
Wheel bearing - Febi Bilstein
Bolts - Audi dealership
Brake Pads and discs - Febi Bilstein
Bulbs - Napa

"Heinrich is whining mein herr." An incredibly detailed and well presented tutorial - all killer, no filler; just as it should be.

For the viewers. Febi sell a kit with the bearing, hub bolt & the rear bolts. The bearing comes in two versions with 3 or 4 bolts.

Thanks for this, very handy - especially the cleaning the new discs before using part!

Easily done. Those PR codes really are the key to correct part selection on these cars!

@@ukguy20 Look for a sticker attached to the body work under the boot carpet. On the sticker you will find a series of codes. After you've taken a photo of the sticker, hit up google for AUDI A3 8P PR Codes and make a comparison with the codes on your cars. The codes are essentially the configuraton of your car.

@@ukguy20 The smaller engine variants usually have the 3 bolt hub and smaller brake set up. To be sure though, check out the data sticker in the boot (same sticker should be at front of service book on VW group cars). You will find a whole line of codes. Google Audi PR codes list and you can translate them all and understand your full vehicle spec.
