I just did this on my Sprinter last night. It suddenly started making noise and even some vibration. I took out the front bearing and looked inside to see it was quite dry on the inner bearing. I used a needle on my grease gun and applied grease to the inner bearing, put the outer bearing in place, and tightened the "nut". Fixed the problem nicely. I may put in new bearings soon though. I have 398,000 miles on my van.

This video saved me a lot of money as i was planning to get new bearings and tools to do the job. Thanks

Thank you! Will try this on my W211 have exactly same symptons

Hey thanks for this! I had some play in my front bearing and some wear on the tire that showed me the problem. I followed this and NO PLAY whatsoever in the hub. GREAT VIDEO!

Hi,I discovered that isn't a good idea to tight the nut any more. I did that a year ago but the bearings started to wear and burn due to lack of grease. The best thing to do is to pull the small bearing out clean the old grease and feed the inner bearing with grease as well. When you put them back together,the nut will be in the same position from factory and the wheel will have no more play. By the way for this type of bearings a little play should be. That big play is caused by the lack of grease in bearings.

That's quite a right hook you got there.

great job, thank you sir 👏 Having bearings play guarantees bad brakes 😂

I’m gonna try this on this E350 job I have from a neighbor of mine before replacing the bearing completely I hope it works ty for the video

Awesome! I’m going to try this on my w211. Also I gotta make sure to give it 3 uggah duggahs

Is it possible at high speed to have vibrations in the car and steering wheel because of this? Thank you.

I used this on my Mercedes sprinter van. Had some play in the bearings.

Better idea to repack it I would think, then adjust the play out

What are the torque specifications for that adjustment?

Great,, thanks for sharing,, job done,, great,,,,

He don’t know what he is doing n my lord

You don’t wanna tighten the adjustment... it has to be hand tighten then backed off with .01 -.03 play on the reader. Your supposed to have a 6$ decimal reader that’s a magnet and sticks flush with the hub then you losses and tighten the adjustment till it’s in speck. You don’t wanna tighten it hard at all.

So you don't bother checking with a dial gauge then!

Does this work for a R129 SL500

had this prob on crossfire nice 👍

So your adjusting the wheel bearing by the pinch bolt ? What kind of Mercedes is this ? Most of the Benz has this pinch bolt and a giant nut .

А где смазка? Почему её не показали, там смазка обязательна нужна

Nice job! Do you know if this is the same procedure one the R129?

Do you have to do this for the rear aswell?

Would this work for a Mercedes-Benz s550 2007 rear wheel drive?.

+1. .. Now that's having a run-out gauge on you're fingertips. .. Just now serviced my "94 E-Class w124 Coupe. .. Having bought MB dealership sourced 201 330 02 51-kit wheel bearings using an old hand-me-down run-out gauge. .. MB spec all the way ..... color me a stupid DIY'r

First to comment!

Brilliant

By just tightening/loosening the bearing nut & bang-bang on the tyre, how would you know how much is sufficient in order to get rid of any abnormal noise/vibrations from the wheel bearings ? You mean after doing this then take the car for a drive to find out...if still not ok then repeat this procedure again ?!?? This method looks like a lot of guesswork to me...i'll say it's better to spend some money get new bearings & M-B original green grease to save on the risks of 'trial & error' & still not getting to where it should be ?

Does this work on w210?

Hello I have same problem. Where are you from ?

Заебись

After adjusting with the rim in place, you knocked the clamp ring out of position before nipping up. This is an inaccurate method which will need to be repeated frequently. Do the job right, the WIS sheet is widely available, nd be careful when nipping up.

My dust cap took 30 fucking minutes. I’m sure I could have done it better but I did it exactly like this video lol

That’s too much plus you never greased it

И по голове так же надо 😂😂😂

Those bearings both looked dry - should be full of grease, they will last a lot longer

А резину колеса обязательно бить кулаком? 😊

Yet another 'Mechanic' that has no clue of how to adjust a Mercedes wheel bearing.
