Mate! This is by far my favorite video for the rear wheel bearing replacement. I may have legitimately watched about 10 different ways to do this. I'm 100% going with your version.
Great tutorial. I was scared to tackle this job and was being charged too much to have someone else do it. After watching this video, I feel confident that I will never have to pay to have wheel bearings replaced. Thank you for taking the time do make this video. Absolutely one of the best videos on UA-cam for this particular task.
Excellent tutorial!!! I really appreciate how you took your time and showed each step, not editing out any difficult areas like so many do, leaving the viewer bewildered as to how it happened... I'm in the states, so we'll see if I can get the same tools off our Amazon. Thanks again for a great video. I've subscribed, which I don't do too often with most channels, but you've earned it. Cheers!
Glad you enjoyed it, its always good to see a job done before attempting it, you can assess where the sticky bit might be, and prepare yourself, Thanks Jon for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Have watched many a video on how to replace wheel hub bearings on BMWs and without blowing smoke up your, well you understand, this is by far the best one in terms of clarity, tool needed and sizes of sockets etc, etc. Cheers 👍🍺
Great job and thanks so much for this awesome video. Just replaced the wheel bearing on my E90 and watching this helped me a lot. Only thing I add is to make sure to remove the ABS sensor before pressing out the bearing. Mine got damaged and had to replace it. Thanks again.
Brilliant execution sir! I get a real military vibe here, nicely done. Also thank you for making me feel good about the labor I will pay my mechanic to do this.
I start to do this job last night but I gave up then I search on UA-cam for some videos now the special tools are in order waiting for them for next weekend to do this job thank you very much very good video
Great video. Thanks for the simple, straightforward tutorial. I need to replace these on my E90 328i, so hoping the process is similar. Doing it tomorrow. Wish me luck! Cheers!
@@aaanton11 On the opposite side, you need to deal with the exhaust system in the way. Anything special that you did to get the drive shaft out from the other side without having to take more of the suspension apart?
I started watching this video and it was almost comical at first because I did the same job on a 2007 X3. The truck came from the rust belt in the US and was no where as easy as you made it look. A friend of mine helped and smashed the axle with a sledge hammer mushroomed the axle. Then putting it back on banged in the end of the axle ruining the axle. I repaired it and changed the abs ring which was causing a whole host of problems on a awd anyway. The only thing I did differently was take the brakes off with the 2 15 mm bolts and not separate them. Installed the hub with the large bearing cup because it’s more stable and goes in straighter. I used a very long socket adapter and removed the e12 bolts on axle inner outside the car top of shaft the boot don’t get in the way and used a friend whose nickname is now Hammer. Great video!
I watched this video so many times; i bought an impact gun (milwaukee too) ahah and the puller! i m about to start next week, im confident with this job because of you, thanks again. Hope you'll do more videos on bmw.
Great work man! Your video helped me a lot with tool choice. Went to do this yesterday on my 3 series GT and since my diff is different type the axles don’t go out, I dismanteled the hand brake and took down the whole wheel bearing housing. It was not that big of a deal actually, 4 more bolts plus the handbrake cable and you are off. It was much easier doing the bearing removal and install on a table and with a vice.
I started to do this job and it seems like my 2016 328I X Dr. sedan does not have the E 12 bolts holding the axel shaft to the differential. Is there another method of doing this without removing the whole knuckle? If so can I do it with their bearing splitter and removal tool as described in your video. Ty Don
Your initial raising and support work is exactly what I do with my E21. I do stack the tyres under the spare tyre well in the back as extra insurance for not dropping down on me. The rear bearing work is a bit tedious but not too bad. Thanks for this!!
I just did then too in my 2008 E90 at BMW shop. They both pretty much failed in short order at 85,000 miles, way too early. Are your fronts still good too?
Your amazing mate. Just want to say thanks out here from the states.this video is spot on. I’ll be tackling this job myself thanks to this motivating video.
Great video. Tip for next time, use a blow torch to remove the bearing race, it'll literally fall straight off after a few seconds of heat. A lot easier than using the bearing splitter
@@aaanton11 but this kit is not suitable for E92 328i xDrive 2013. There are rear bearing 84mm, and the largest cup from that toolset is 84-85mm inner diameter. So to remove bearing from hub i've used hub itself and 5 long bolts.
Great video thank you just ordered few tools and wheel bearing. Looking forward doing it. My bearing making similar sound and going over cat eyes makes metallic sound, have no play in wheel, brakes all ok
Great video that shows how to do it! Might have to do this on my 118d to soon. Btw, the nut on the driveshaft should be torqued to 145 nm + 45 degrees according to Bmw specs (for the driveshaft thats M24). 🙂
@@jptrainor I use that spec often my self, but on some things i prefer to have it to bmw spec. Specially bearings etc wher to tight can wear it out faster. Not sure if that actually can happen with this type of bearings but non the less.. 🙂
@@Alpejohn Yes. Me too. I like my torque wrenches and factory service manual to earn their keep. Gut-und-tight seems to be very popular despite our preference.
I dont even need wheel bearing replacements i just need the little hub off due to snapping the lug nut in half so this was helpful gonna start it in a week or 2
I really liked this one! Nice and thorough. The only thing I would like to see walls torque settings. Especially the center nut very often have surprisingly light torque setting. Cool to see you are doing this with very basic tools in your driveway. Just like me.
I agree on the torque specs. The center axle nut could wear out the bearing prematurely if over torqued. It’s hard to get a feel with an impact lol. Also I would recommend a medium “blue” grade Loctite on the 6 axle torx bolts along with the brake caliper bracket to hub also torque to spec. All in all Great video!!!
Boys, do not fuck up anything, its aint that easy, he just make it look easy, if ur kinda guy who gives up after having bolts stuck then just dont do it. And goodvideo man, as a mechanic u learned me alot today!
I wanted to add a word of caution to any DIY'ers attempting this. I'm working on replacing the rear wheel bearings on my '09 E82. My car has no undercarriage rust whatsoever, as it has spent most of its life in Southern Texas, and more recently in Southern California. I attempted removing the axle from the hub using multiple techniques, all ending in futility and/or broken tools. I'm down to the choice of trying a hydraulic press or buying brand new knuckles/axles/hubs/fasteners. My conclusion is that it's pure luck of the draw determining how straightforward it is to remove an axle. Just do a quick UA-cam search on stuck BMW axles. Suffice to say there a lot.
Thanks for the detailed tutorial. Definitely something I could tackle at home but for me the cost of some of the tools I’d need vs paying my mechanic to do it doesn’t justify it. I understand tools will be there for next time but I wouldn’t use them often enough.
Instead of paying the mechanic, buy tools you need. I've built up basically every tool I need for mine and the family / friends to use. Rarely need to buy something now for a job
Good job. Good tip I came across for getting the race off is to put a socket in a vice, put the hub on the socket, heat the race with oxy or map and it just drops off. No more cutting them off (to be fair that one came off easy with the puller...get a lottery ticket quick)
Something worth keeping in mind is if the car has ABS the bearing can have a magnetic side which works with the wheel sensor. It’s not marked on the bearing so easiest way is to check with a small metal object like a paper clip. The magnetic side would usually go towards the back. I found this out after fitting and the car throwing up all kinds of errors. I had to buy another bearing and refit.
Nice vid some really helpful tips I’m just doing the bearing on the nsr on my 123d but have to drop the exhaust but watched this and it pretty much shows you exactly what you got to do
Great stuff mister, noting that type of bearing with 2 part inner race are loose by design until tightened (around 9:50 in) apart from that almost inconsequential point, excellent tutorial! :D Just trying to save someone a load of work if they're only changing the shaft, as it'll feel floppy soon as the nut is undone if inner races haven't stuck to the hub. If you have the bearing removal kit, always worth doing the bearing when changing the drive shaft anyway. Keep up the great work, inspiring me to upload a video of my own some day.
fantastic video, but don't forget of course if you don't use the right torque to tighten the wheel bearing bolts it will break more faster so I recommend 140 torque.
25:35 I don’t know if anyone’s said but I don’t think that’s correct. I believe one side of the bearing is magnetic and one side isn’t (can check by touching a screwdriver or similar to it). The magnetic side should be facing in next to the ABS sensor. If you put it in the wrong way around you’ll probably get a fault code thrown up. Otherwise great tutorial!
Great video and interesting to watch. Only comment I would make is to tighten those various nuts using a torque wrench. Those electric impact wrenches impart a MASSIVE amount of torque and it is super easy to over tighten bolts, particularly the main axle and the wheel studs!!!
is the process the same for my 2015 435i convertible? I noticed some light grinding coming from the rear and I had a shop foreman drive it and thats what he thinks. Id rather try to do this myself than overpay at the dealership
I know this video is 3 years old but one of the best tutorials for this job. What did you remove from the hub ? Was looking at new hubs and bearings will I need to buy the splitter tool too ?
I recently updated the link in the video description for the bearing separator it is the closest one I can find the one I used Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Thank you, stumbled upon your channel when you fixed the squeaky suspension that I had too :) Am about to change the rear drive axle because of the ABS-ring, and was a little worried how to get the axle back into the hole(?), but seems like it was just to push it in according to this video, Makes the fix seem much do-able.

Thank you, stumbled upon your channel when you fixed the squeaky suspension that I had too :)
Am about to change the rear drive axle because of the ABS-ring, and was a little worried how to get the axle back into the hole(?), but seems like it was just to push it in according to this video, Makes the fix seem much do-able.
the hardest bit will be undoing the drive shaft nut, it will be tight Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Good work!!!! but at the same time very hard work as well!!
That's true! Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
