Great video guys - crazy to see how them wheel bearings work. Loving the new unit and got a right laugh out of the Chrisfix voiceover!

Good to see your not rolling around outside in the freezing cold Scottish weather! great vid thanks for that.

The ChrisFix bit was funny. In my head I also heard “out with the old, in with the new”. Looking forward to seeing the Lanoguard video

No anger involved doing this big job. Years ago i worked as a young boy in a garage you would hear a macanic losing the plot with a tough bolt then it snaps and the customer foots the bigger bill because of the man hours to fix it fantastic content again boys.

We don't complain you never get your hands dirty Charlie. We just want you to gain experience pal.

Remember Ford focus when these bearing/hubs started to move , the official solution was thread lock lol

Crazy Idea for bearing but so simple design German motors seem to lead the way easiest one I did was on my Mk5 golf hex bolt and just slide off the shafts and fronts just 4x star bits and comes away

Let's hope the clip doesn't corrode before the bearing wears out

Very good video. Just keep it sample. I’ve got an Audi just like the one you had. 2003-04 blue b6 tdi.Sad to say it needs a front wheel bearing. Rear abs. Just needs some love. Glen from Devon.

I’ve still got mine, my son in law has borrowed it for a bit. I had to do callipers and rear ABS sensors on mine last year.

DTE TV just showed how to fit the VW bearings with two 6mm pieces of wood cut to a semi circle to fit the bearing clip. Watch his channel for lots of VW tips.

The Gen2 bearing setup can be a nightmare, they can come right out, others feel like they are welded in, be careful on the removal tools, some are all black finish, other silver and black, but they can be silver for taking out or black, cheap sets don't always have the instructions like genuine tools.

Hi guys....love the channel....I know money's tight....but I think you should have gone for a slightly bigger unit...as you will quickly outgrow that one....all the best...

Thanks for watching, to be honest i don't worry about it. I don't see it being any different to any other garage or dealership. Im not sure we have that much fame for anyone to worry about that.

It looks to me that the black anodised rings were for removing the bearing and the silver rings are for putting the new bearing in, the rings should clamp nice and snug on the new bearing and have no movement once the two halves of the rings are bolted together.

And yet, on smaller vag products the rear bearings are held on by a stretch bolt done up to a ridiculous torque then 180 degrees usually.

Thought same thing ,but suppose caliper around disc helps prevent it , falling off ,but still bloody un inspiring,German engineering eh
