BMW X5 Front Wheel Bearing Replacement DIY (2014-2018 BMW F15X5, F16 X6)

► A failing BMW X5 wheel bearing will make a lot of tell-tale sounds. A good example of this is a humming sound at highway speeds. Additionally, a bad wheel bearing will also make groaning or clunking sounds while turning. If your BMW's wheel bearings are making this noise we highly recommend immediate replacement.
Fortunately these BMW F15 X5's use a bolt-on style wheel hub & bearing which makes for quick and easy replacement, only needing to remove a few brake components and minimal tools.
Follow along as Gareth Foley, FCP Euro's BMW Catalog Manager walks you through the steps needed to get the job done.

    It's exactly the same process as on the X5 e70. Applicable to 2007-2013. Great video.

    I'm doing the front wheel bearing on my e70 X5 2010 and the bolts/bearing are the 12 x1.25 mm. The torque for these bolts is ? 120nm + 90 degrees? Thanks for confirming . All of the FCP videos are great.

    Most covered BMW repairs guide on KZread I think. I have been looking for this procedure with BMW X3 F25 rear. Have you covered it as well?

    For my 2011 x5 50i, the same process but a couple notes: the wheel hub bolts on the original are XZN heads, the kit comes with the t60 Torx heads, so make sure to have XZN sockets on hand. My brake slide pins were a 9mm Allen head, not a 7mm...and ONLY a 9mm will work, so head to NAPA and grab that right ow because it isn't in whatever kit you have on hand. Otherwise, it's the same process. For fitting the new hub onto the axle, you can use some compressed air in a can (aka computer dust) and turn it upside down and freeze the axle spline, shrinking it just enough to make fitment possible.

    It's never a bad idea to do a 4 hub changeover at 120000 miles. You realize how much the wheel hubs affect handling, noise, vibration,smooth braking,and safety. X5 is a heavy vehicle with high bearing load, especially with dynamic drive.

    Great video! You mentioned that pulling the axle back through the hub using the axle nut was kind of a no-no. in the past, I've threaded the nut on to the axle and gently pulled the axle through the hub using claws and a slide hammer, and I said gently :-) Why do you think that that's a no-no?

    For something with that high of a NM, we always suggest the GearWrench 3/8 drive bean torque wrench. We carry this on our website and can be found by searching GRW-2956N!

    My axel will not push back from the hub. I tried pounding it, and using a 3 jaw hub puller but no dice. Am I missing something or is it possible this thing is super rusted on ?

  • @fcpeuro

    @fcpeuro

    2 жыл бұрын

    it can be admittedly EXTREMELY stubborn, just ensure when pounding it you arent in fact mushrooming the head of the axel, as that will cause it to become a bit more stuck than it may already be(always hit it with the nut still on). IT could certainly be well rusted in there, have you sprayed any penetrant?

    Jack your car up and wiggle the wheel north and south. If there is any play/movement at all, the bearings are shot.

    not necessarily....honestly your wheel bearing or hub can go bad and have different symptoms typical you would here some sort of noise to start with. there could be play in the wheel not all the time.. if there is play make sure it coming from the bearing. I have to change mine because the lug bolts hole are stripped causing my wheel not to drive like a bad alignment when turning

    You should really be wearing a mask when you clean the corroded surfaces. Not good for the lungs. Great vid otherwise.
