You deserve way more subs. Your videos are so clear and easy to follow. Even torque specs are more accurate than a lot of videos I've seen with 50 times the subscribers you have. Very well done.
Much respect, I appreciate you taking the time to acknowledge my content. Yea, hopefully these videos pick up more traction, so a lot more people can benefit.
So far you're the only one I've seen torque the bolt correctly and actually get the full 180. Very nice!
Official VW Repair documentation (2023 revision) specifies 200Nm + 90 degrees. It seems that every video out there (including from reputable vendors such as ECS and FCP Euro) has different specifications, none of which match the official repair documentation.
Your repair technique and explanations are outstanding. The video images are extremely clear and helpful. Great work.
Your video was the best at showing how difficult getting to those carrier bolts can be. They are really buried behind the brake and parking brake lines brake + the suspension parts. Telescoping breaker bar plus stubby 14 mm triple square is the key.
Thanks buddy .
Liked and subbed.
Yea, for sure. Those bolts are a pain to get to especially if you don't have a propper setup. I'm happy you found this video helpful, thanks for watching and welcome to the Crafty family!
Fantastic video! All the info I need to get the job done. Thanks and well done! You've got a new sub.
I'm happy I was able to help, much respect👍🏽
Thank You for this video. I've had abs issues for months, messing with the sensors and batteries. I finally narrowed it down to the rear right speed sensor, and played around with that until i saw your video. Bought the bearing, followed your steps, abs lights are out, and still out 600miles later. Thank you so much.
Much respect! I'm happy I was able to help you resolve your issue with this video. Thanks for watching.
Excellent tutorial! I need to do this same job on my Mk6 GTI. ABS system has lost it's mind. I like that you list Bolt Sizes & Torque Settings. Thank You!
Much respect! Yea, that's pretty much the reason why I did the replacement. The bearing was good, but the ABS ring was damaged.
Great video!! FYI those rear caliper carrier bolts are TTY as well. It gets expensive to replace all the bolts. Most bolts on the GTI are TTY and it sucks. I have a bag of used, in great condition bolts :(
Was gonna say the same but hopefully this comment gets bumped up for those that don’t know
Carrier bolts on the rear are TTY
Doing this today for the same reason.(Advice to people :Don't just change the speed sensor if you have that fault code. Inspect the bearing . Thanks for the upload . Very clear and well edited video .
Yea, for sure. I thought it was the sensor that was causing the code as well, but after ruling out the sensor, I check and found the damaged bearing. Thanks for watching!
@@CraftyWorkshopBuilds Job done today . No more lights on the dashboard .
Long breaker bar for the bearing nut and M14 stubby triple square for the caliper bracket are your friends.
@@CraftyWorkshopBuilds By the way the blower resistor just died . Amazon delivery for Sunday :)
@@r.t.7925 good job, on fixing it. Yea, I had to use a breaker bar and a jack handle, and even then the breaker bar was flexing. My axle bolt was on really tight. Yea, I had to pull out my stuby triple square socket, when I realized the longer ones wouldn't fit.
@@r.t.7925 oh, cool. Should be a simple swap
Great video with easy-to-follow steps as always! Gotta do the same wheel bearing soon, just been putting it off haha.
Much respect! Yea, prepare to pull the bearing bolt, otherwise you'll be good. Lol
great video and nice music as well.
much respect!
The rotor holding bolt. I've had a lot of luck putting the Allen socket in it and striking it with a hammer. It usually breaks the rust weld.
Nice video, thanks!
Respect and thanks for watching!
Those 2 bolts that hold the Carrier mount on are a MUTHA!! to get loose.
Great video, it is really informative. When I look for the right rear bearing and hub assembly, I'm getting results showing 30mm and 32mm bearings and I can't find anything advising the proper size. Does anybody have knowledge of this? 2011 GTI Base, M/T, PZEV. Thanks in advance!
I too saw this i went to advanced auto parts and got the bearing today if its correct size i can supply you the part number i drive a 2011 autobahn edition mt usdm
Ever figure out the size? Just went to AA and they asked “30 or 32mm…?”
Fantastic video, thank you!
Much respect!
Nice vid bro
Much respect!
Great video!! what's the size for the bolt that you replaced on the rotor?
Thanks for a great video. Just done the front and turns out it was the back needing doing. Back looks a lot easier than the front. Looked a bit tricky - 133 torque then another very hard 180degree. I'd be worried about breaking a tool or worse - the bolt? Guess if it was risky you would have said that. So what's holding the axle? Brake or gear? Thanks
Yea, the bolt will be fine, but you gotta worry about your tool. Make sure you have a solid breaker bar and a jack handle. You can see in the video, my breaker bar was flexing. The bolt goes into the rear knuckle, no gear nor brake is involved.
Anything snaps/slips or breaks while youre pressing down and your gonna have an ugly day. But your dentist or window repair guy would be happy. So be careful and controlled.
How come the old one look different then the new one on the back?
i cant get that grease cover off
Can anyone tell me if the wheel bolts thread directly into the outer hub or the bearing system? Previous owner stripped 2/5 bolts and I would like to replace only what is necessary.
youre the goat
Much respect 👍🏽
Great video man. I need to pickup a bearing aswell and was wondering if you got the 30mm or the 32mm size for your car?
Thanks for watching! I'd have to measure the old bearing to see, I forgot the size. This is the part number for the one I got. 1K0598611
30mm
I don't understand the torqueing of the hub bolt. Do you torque it to 133 ft-lbs then turn it another half turn?
Yes, that's what I did. After the initial torque, I stretched the bolt by turning it 180 degrees. That's why these bolts should not be reused.
Is this process pretty similar on a standard 2011 VW Golf 2.5L ?
Yes, it is similar.
Is it really dangerous to not replace the bolt?
Yes, That bolt might not withstand another torque and stretch.
@@CraftyWorkshopBuilds I am wondering what happen if it broke. Will you lose one wheel ? 😦
its fine if you can able torque it up to 180nm, dont scretch it again, use with blue loctit... if the bolt unsafe it will break when middle of torque
@@Tigrou7777 yeap the wheel will come off.
