I just bought new brake caliper slide pins and the bolts are not 10 mm they're 14 mm bolts now
what if you don't have a torque wrench just a breaker bar
my new wheel bearings from this company didn't come with new axle nuts in the boxes at all
Outstanding! One of the best how to videos. I was not looking forward to this job but this video made it a snap. Only thing left to do that was not mentioned was dust the brake pedal with a microfiber towel!! 😂
What a treat to watch! Just facts ... no annoying background music or distractions. Thank You for sharing your expertise, TRQ!
This was the best mechanical walkthrough video I've ever seen. You just saved me hundreds of dollars and now I have a new skill.
Best walk through I have ever seen on a DIY repair. Usually they only take you through taking everything apart and then just say put it all back in reverse but you walked us all the way through. Thanks! Really helped
Just replaced front passenger side bearing on a 14 Cruze. Followed this video to a T and had no issues at all. Thank You!
I watched both this video and the control arm replacement video this morning, just did both simultaneously. It was amazing, I had all the right tools ready to go and had all the advice I needed on how to handle the trickiest parts. Thanks for making my day go smoothly!
Much better than the last video I watched, they took apart way more shit and I ain't got time for all that extra work lmao
Thank you for a great job with the work.
Very good explanation
Very good straightforward video. Just need all the gear you have to make it that easy. Premade hubs are a good idea in some ways. My old Holden Commodore did nearly 250k kilometres on the original hubs.Lot better than every 60k repacking
Great walkthrough! I have run into one little hiccup though... what model number are the hub bolts? I've searched everywhere online, and can't seem to find the correct bolts for my car.
Fantastic walk through. Great to see a torque wrench on the wheel nuts to, an understanding far too many people dont seem to have.
Excellent walk through! Now to go parts shopping and see where this will go wrong...
So here's how it went wrong: Couldn't get the retaining screw out on the driver's side. Rounded off the Torx head, then tried to get it out with a screw extractor. The screw extractor snapped.
Ended up drilling out much of the head, then banging the rotor with a mallet until it bent what was left of the screw head and I was able to finally twist it out!
😩
@@TigDegner Glad I can help! I found out later that something called a hand impact driver would have been very helpful in getting that screw out.
Great video, huge help. Thank you!
wait... did you switch vehicles at one point? the axle nut at the end looks old and rusty but you just put a new one on...
Anyone able to find replacements for the 3 18mm hub assembly(bearing) bolts?
Great video, thanks!
Shouldve geased the pins and back of pads. Before reassembling but great video
Very good explained,thank
I just bought these wheel bearings and they don't come with new axle nuts at all I replaced left front side wheel bearing and it's making a very loud humming sound I'm taking it to a garage tommorow morning hopefully this new wheel bearing is not bad I bought a pair of them have not replaced right front side yet
Great video - any idea on if that spacer is needed for the ABS wheel speed sensor operator, mine is cracked in two, im struggling to find the part number - any ideas ?
What is the name of the spacer that goes on the axle?
How many miles were on the vehicle when the bearing went?
The website says it’s for a 1.8L 2011-2012 and 1.4L 2013-2015 Would it fit directly to 2011 1.4L
What torque wrench are you using? Can you provide a link to buy it?
The torque wrench near the end of the video appears to be a Precision Instruments PREC3FR250F Silver 1/2" Drive Split Beam Torque Wrench with Flex Head
Thanks
Can I take off the axle by hand without an impact gun?
Axle nut*
Angle meter what? LOL OK, so if I don't have that, or know how to use that, is a regular torque wrench going to work?
Also, is it necessary to dissassemble the brakes? Or can they be taken off as a unit and reinstalled as a unit. I saw a video for the same repair on a Ford and they were able to remove the rotors with the brake calipers attached - just one move - then return the whole kit and kaboodle afterwards.
Also, thanks for this great video!
Brake caliper holding bolts are actually 74 ft-lbs + 60 degrees
Brake bracket, not caliper. You'd snap the caliper bolts if you tried that.
Would this be the same for the 2017 Chevy sonic ? From Everything I can see. It looks identical. And I need to replace mine and I’d like to do it myself.
Same way to take off and on but the actual wheel hub and bearing are not the same, which suxs ass it's a different part
Put the new bearings on. Still hearing a humming noise that gets louder the faster you go. New tires, alignment was done with the new tires. No popping or clicking noises. Just loud humming at speed. Could it be a bad bearing?
+R R Hello I apologize we would not be able to diagnosis this type of issue here.
I have a similar issue and have a feeling it's my transmission although I am far from being a mechanic. Did you ever figure out what was causing the humming?
At 3:45 - What type of ratchet did you use to get to the top bolt on back side by the CV boot? My ratchets are too big to fit around the boot
I just did the job and see what you mean. I used a shallow 18mm socket with a 1/2" wobble extension. You need to go at it from a slight angle, which the wobble extension makes possible.
Is it a common failure for a Chevy Cruze 2015?
It's a "wear" item for *all* manufacturers not just Chevy
1. Watch video
2. Realize this is way out of my skill zone
3. Pay a real mechanic to do it for me
🤣
I have a 2014 Cruze 2.0 diesel with 17" wheels from the factory. Bolt pattern is 5x115. anybody know what hub assembly I need?
+Kevin Felix Thanks for watching! We do not carry the correct hubs for your model at this time. We are always adding parts to our inventory, so check back with us in the future!
What’s the average cost for this per wheel?
If you're having a shop do it, plan for about $300 per wheel.
Real easy when everything just comes apart this easily. When the bearing and CV joint aren't fused... which very common. The video is bunch of crap because it doesn't address a very very common issue. And you know this
Mine came apart just fine. I've replaced several dozen hub assemblies on other vehicles with no issues. Unless your dealing with a neglected or extremely worn out part, you shouldn't have too much of an issue
