How To Replace a PRESS IN Wheel Bearing ~ On The Car
Рет қаралды 984,904
Күн бұрынThis Mk4 GTI has a bad wheel bearing. The wheel bearing noise while driving was low. But the wheel bearing noise off the ground was crazy. The wheel bearing symptom was play in the wheel. In this video we are using a wheel bearing removal tool to replace a press in wheel bearing. And ended up needing a wheel hub too.

Hub goes off easily, a bit of hammering with a socket and that's it. By the other hand, the outer bearing race is harder to take out. I take out two of them in a three day span, and the first went off in two minutes, the second in fourthy minutes, because the bearing was much older. All done with a hammer, as my press lack of adapters and broke the first knuckle (it was from my car).

Easiest hub removal I've ever seen. Because of that and the appearance of the inner most hub shaft surface, hub had to be loose in the inner bearing race. Plus the tone ring for ABS was damaged making replacement with a new hub the correct choice. The whole press in bearing job was the easiest I've ever seen done or done myself. I do on car using hub grappler by OTC. Easier set up and quicker due to less disassembly than using a shop press where set up is a real pain due to odd shapes of spindles. Plus saves having to do an alignment on some cars. Snap ring placed in hub is a good tip, I know that sick feeling you get when you look down and see the snap ring on the floor when you're torquing down the axle nut. ONLY HAPPENED ONCE, BUT IT LEFT A LASTING IMPRESSION. Thanks Charles.

As a rust-belt mechanic for a VW/Audi shop, I used anti-seize on anything that didn't already call for a specific grease/threadlocker. I have never had the moly grease come with my bearings, so I always anti-seized the bearing in and anti-seized the hub into the bearing. We also did a lot of seasonal wheel swaps so we also anti-seized wheel hub faces and lug bolts to make sure our wheel swaps were effortless.

I remember replacing both front wheel bearings on my MK3 GTI VR6. I didn't have the ability to press them in, but VW Parts Place will sell you a refurbished carrier with the new bearings in place, and you return your carrier back for the core deposit. It worked out great. I have more ability now, so I'd definitely just rent the tools I need and do the job. Back then, it was the furthest this home mechanic had ever dug into the front end of a car, so I'm glad that service exists.

One year I did a wheel bearing right before leaving for H2Oi in OCMD from NJ which was about 250 miles each way. When I left town after the weekend I started to hear the humming and knew it was bad already. By the time I was 50 miles out from home I was truly worried I wouldn't even make it home because the sound had progressed so much. Luckily I did. I learned a valuable lesson that day. I had put a new bearing on the old hub, and I guess the tolerances had opened up. From that point on I will always do a bearing and hub together. Especially, as you pointed out, when the hub is 30 dollars.

My car is a '08 Jetta City, same hub & bearing. Definitely lubed the bore as you did, got the new hubs being so cheap. Also lifted bearing seals to squirt more grease inside as factory lube was very sparse. One of the most tedious bearing jobs, but the most satisfying using the right tools. Good job!

The only problem is I have found it is not enough torque.... I have a jetta with 615K miles on it and out of the 3 wheel bearings I have replaced 2 were caused by the nut working itself loose. The 1st stock one went bad around 300K nothing like the one in the video just some noise. But after following those torque instructions and a couple of hundred thousand miles later I had them go bad and it was the nut came loose. I have now gone with the tighten the crap out of it and leave it. The wheel still spins freely so I see no reason to loosen it.

Explaining that you need to use slightly different sizes when pulling and pressing in the bearing is the type of information that amateur mechanics need to know/learn.

I was a little surprised that the OTC Hub Tamer or Hub Tamer Elite wasn't used for this job. It makes all of these steps so much easier. It is the preferred tool for this job for 20+ years. There are even foreign copies of the tool. Additionally, I use MIG welders and plasma cutters to remove bearing races. Nobody uses a Dremel, ick. Inductive bolt heaters or a heating tip on an Oxy-Acetylene torch are used. I do this work on the side, and these tools and tricks have been known in the industry since forever. We have to do the job correctly.

Holy crap, never seen a hub just fall out! Guess your axle nut was really doing its job. In my experience, at least on Japanese cars, slide hammer is a go. The right snap ring plyers are great. I also prefer not to use power tools. The feel is important and a lot of wheel bearings have been damaged during install from off angle stress, usually with a press. Being in the NE, I like to add a layer of grease to the inside of the knuckle and/or outside of bearing. The snap ring holds it in place anyways, it will never move, but then it can't become seized with rust in the future. Light grease in the snap ring groove too. That's quite the axle nut torque procedure. Great work as always!

I have done many of these pressed in bearings over the years. It is always nice when the snap ring is on the outside because you don't need to remove the knuckle (as opposed to having the snap ring on the inside end) I have always used silicone spray to lube the bearing and the hub when pressing in. I also leave the new bearing in the freezer for a few hours and it helps things slide in nice and easy with the press tool.

The mirror can get in the way, and if you're unlucky, the clear coat could stick in that gap between the door and the belt molding.

Invaluable content! Late comment so this probably won't be seen by many BUT regarding working with snap rings: it's good practice to always have your free hand (preferably wearing some kind of mechanics glove) cupped over the ring while it's under tension in the pliers. If those teeth slip, the ring will be shot into outer space, and or your face!

Cars with cheap flimsy subframes and control arms typically only last 5-8 years before they are fit for the scrapyard. Undercoating every year is a must. A chip in the paint has to be fixed immediately otherwise your body panel will rot off in a couple weeks. I live out west on the mainland now and rust is a non-issue. Makes my life so much easier lol
