happy543210 did you get the proper vw tool to make this comment about vw specialty tools, or were you able to manage with something around the garage? But seriously, they kind of have to have a specialty tool for everything to make the manufacturing process as quick and easy as possible while allowing the job to be done by the least skilled, aka inexpensive, labor to do the work in a manner that cannot damage the new vehicle, in the factory. Therefore there will be a lot of “special tools” but really a mechanic doesn’t need all of them per se. Just specific ones like timing tools and more technical tools while the special dust cap tool for MKV cars can be a chisel (or straight screwdriver, let’s me honest) and hammer.

Prompt timing for this vid. Working on my Mk5 Rabbit's right now. 4ft pipe and breaker bar. This is by far the easiest set up, compared to the fronts. I still have nightmares of the torches (for heating the hub up) and rust. Ty for the tip not to use power tools, its arm day ;-) and this all started with the ABS/Squeel Tires on Pavement lights on. Used the Vagcom to verify the sensors are working. The ring on one WB was half gone. Doing both as you suggested. 150k miles.

I didn't have a breaker bar my buddy had it and was on vacation so I improvised. Car was on all 4 jack stands for Halden service at the ttime. Just put my 1/2 ratchet on and had it parallel and used my audi jack stand to slowly break my 24 mm 12 point bolt loose. Easy peasy lemon squeezy.. hope this helps someone one day...also make sure you use one hand to keep the socket in place so it does strip and a weird angle.

Just to clarify, when you say 'not to use an impact on this bolt' at 4:57 , the workshop manual states not to use an impact because socket T10162 is a non impact socket - that is the reason it states twice not to use an impact, not because you shouldn't use it on the bolt but the official tripple square/spline bits used by VW workshops are CRV, and hence are not impact rated and could shatter. If using a CRM socket bit then you can use an impact........not that you will probably get anywhere unless you have an impact wrench that can put out 2000nm of torque! (i know from experience on this one, 1200nm nut busting torque wouldn't shift this mother!)

Is a bad rear wheel bearing also related to vibrations? I have a golf 6 and for some reason it vibrates and shakes from the back for no reason after I hit a speed above 80km/h. This phenomenon is intermitent, it doesn’t happen all the time. I don’t really know what the problem is. I know some of you will say that the tires are bad, but if the tires are bad it should vibrate all the time, right?
@lukew2194 4 жыл бұрын
The bolt for the wheel bearing is M16 triple square (07 gti). The bolts (2) for the caliper carrier are M14 triple square and a nightmare to get off (especially the bottom one). It's a struggle to get the caliper off, removing the whole thing like he did in the video is the way to go. Don't cheap out, get a new dust cap. The bearing is not sealed without the dust cap. You don't want crap to get in the bearing and shorten it's life. Replace wheel bearings in pairs. Do left and right in the rear together.

I installed a new bearing. During the process of installation I hit the bearing several times with the hammer. Actually I hammered the hub (with a plastic hammer though) it almost in 1/3, then used press, but didn't know I need to use a lip on the bottom. The center of the bearing came off on the bottom like for 1 mm. I placed the lip and made it even again with the hammer. The hub is rotating very good, but gives a slight grinding noise, not like the other one I replaced before, which rotates with more efforts, but doesn't make any sound. Should I replace that bearing with the slight grinding sound? Probably I shouldn't hammer it that much (though with the soft hammer). Thank you for the informative film.

Hey Charles! Thanks for this video, did that job last weekend to replace the splash guard. Unfortunately I had to drill the brake disc "position" screw because I stripped the head. Is this screw necessary? I don't think so but I think that the caliper is a bit stuck now, the wheel is not turning freely (didn't have the tool to push back the piston). Thanks PS: for anyone attempting this job, don't do like me. Be sure to remove that screw BEFORE removing the caliper or the disc will turn when you try to unscrew it.
@anthonyf.8336 6 жыл бұрын
I did the brakes all around on my VW Rabbit a few months ago, and I stripped 3 out of 4 of the rotor set screws, just like you did for the one. The screw is totally not necessary because your wheel and lug bolts hold the rotor onto the hub. So the screw is not needed at all. If your caliper is stuck, then that might be an issue with the caliper itself. Hope this helps. -Anthony

You did not mention that the back side inner race likes to come off and stay behind. I've seen 3 tow in where people replaced their own and couldn't figure out why the new bearing would not go all the way back on in the last year...

Nope because that doesn’t happen on these. That’s a mk4/b5 issue.

Man I have replaced 30 of these over the years, and seen tons more replaced and the shop. Never seen one come apart like you are saying. The MK4/B5 all did it. The bearing was kind of pressed in. Something to keep an eye on, but I have never seen or heard of it on this generation

Do you not have to add grease with the new bearing?

As for the wheel bearing torques, the manual says 200 N.m. + 180 turn. In the video you said 180

hi @HumbleMechanic - for an MK6 - can I get away with just buying the bearing and figuring out a way to press out and press-in the bearing into the existing housing?

Hello. I am having trouble fitting a bearing on a Ford fusion european version. It seems, bearing can't be tightened more than 28 nm, because i get the feeling it becomes stuck. I think this is very little than a bearing should be tightened. It has drumbrakes and the bearing is placed în the drum. Or, maybe some special tightening procedure. I have no ideea.

Is it the same type of triple square as the rear Caliper M14 bolt? (but in size M18?)

Great video, but just a small question as far as diagnosis is concerned. I've got a Mk7.5 GTI. Hit a pothole recently which was bad enough to bend the wheel. Replaced the wheels, but I still have a bit of a rumble sound AND some vibration/shaking at various speeds. Would a damaged hub cause both the sound and vibration or is it likely I'm looking for something else as well? I've had two suspension diagnostics and an alignment done since replacing the wheel and they say there's nothing wrong with the suspension.

My rabbit appears to have a speed sensor (like the one on your vehicle) but the original bearing has a partitioned metal ring around the back of it that passes very close to the sensor. The replacement bearings did not have this. Is this a problem?

How is the process for an Audi b6 front wheel bearing?

Hmm my 350z is making a sound noise probably coming from the rear, at first I thought it was the tire cause it was pretty worn out, so I got new tires but the sound is still there. It just sounds like a loud tire road noise. If its a bearing going bad, how bad would it be to drive the car 600 miles? I need to drive across the state tomorrow and its a 600 mile drive
