Vw T5 4Motion Prop shaft bearing replacement part 10

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

The dealership and independent workshops usually just replace the whole propeller shaft - just the part alone will run you about 1800 bucks (work not included), but you can buy both bearings for about 80 bucks on ebay , do the job yourself and save yourself a nice slump of money, that you instead can spend on ice-cold beer :) here's how I did it.

    @1:17. If anyone's wondering, you do have to keep the bearing with the lock ring and not all the way on the shaft. I had to push back the bearing when I found out that the bolt holes on the chassis didn't align with the bearing. The usual design brilliance by VAG /s. If only hi-ace didn't look so ugly...

    @@fatmanbhkbjorn The part at the end of thevideo where you were not sure if you needed to push the bearing forward again a bit towards the lock ring. :)

    At what point would you consider they need replacing ? If you get vibration or if the bearing is sagging in the mount ?

    Hi. Sorry for taking so long to answer. If you can feel vibration and you are sure it's from the prop shaft, you can still ride 'till the rubber disintegrates, and even then you can drive slowly in order to get home or to a shop. However, in order to get rid of the vibration you probably need to have it balanced.
