Attention! This video contains mistakes: 6:03 - the tightening torque is 70 Nm + 90°, not 70 Nm. 6:50 - the tightening torque is 60 Nm, not 55 Nm. 7:19 - the tightening torque is 4 Nm, not 9 Nm. 7:37 - the tightening torque is 190 Nm, not 65 Nm. 8:32 - the tightening torque is 70 Nm + 90°, not 80 Nm. We're sorry for the inconvenience 🙇♂
And the torque spec is dependant on what new driveshaft bolt comes with the new wheel bearing, if it's a 12 point bolt with ribbing on the underside of the bolt head the torque specs are as follows stage 1 70Nm stage 2 is 90° but if the new 12 point bolt doesn't have the ribbing on the underside of the bolt head the torque specs are stage 1 200Nm and stage 2 is 180° so check which bolt you are using.
I am so grateful to this video as I am certainly not a mechanic but finances made it so that I had to either forfeit my car or fix the front bearings. This video was a HUGE help and I know how time consuming video editing and setting up to film is, on top of the work itself that you featured. I appreciated how you posted the Torque requirements of each step right on the screen for me to follow. You guys rock!
I followed the recommended torque values for the axle bolt (80Nm) and found a strange noise when driving. Checked tonight and found the bolt had worked loose. Now re-tourqued to 200Nm and 180 degrees
THx, for the detailed vid. Very good. But the music is annoying 10 on 10, makes you wish the video ends soon. Hearing the mechanic work and tool sounds would be just better, realistic and really anyone interested in the video would prefer to hear that.
Most shops do not do any of this. They use an impact wrench on most of these nuts and then you are back in the shop for something else that fails. For example twisted break lines or alignment or squeaking noise. I have had to fix these on my own after paces like PepBoys or Ford dealership monkeyed with replacing an axel or discs.
I agree, I'm replacing the front wheel bearing on 2010 golf (mk6) 2.5 and I did NOT have to remove the 3 control arm bolts to change out the hub. Im replacing it right now as I type.
It's not possible to skip. At least on the GTI there isn't enough clearance between the upper two hub bolts and the CV joint to stick an M12 socket bit in there. Unless maybe using a long reach M12? But it still seems pretty tight for the bolt to clear the CV...
In general, the replacement will be similar, the only thing that may be slightly different in the design features of your car. More accurate information can be obtained in the technical documentation for the car or by contacting the service.
@@autodocuk It just needed a little balanced thrust from both sides of the hub in my case. I ended up removing the heat shield. Once i got both hands on the hub, I was able to evict it from it's home very easily. Took me a good 15 minutes of soaking and tapping the shaft before trying this. Hope it helps somebody...
I followed this torque setting and found the axle bolt had worked itself loose. Couldn’t put my finger on the odd noise while driving. Glad I checked it tonight otherwise it could have caused a serious incident. It’s now been torqued to 200Nm and RFT
I know that for the 08 R32, there are 3 different types of bolts, so they have different torque specs. According to the Bentley forum: There are 3 different axle bolts that were used and are in circulation. 1) A hex head bolt with a separate washer (27mm head) = 200 N*m + 1/2 turn 2) A 12-point shoulder bolt with RIBBING under the head (24mm head) = 70 N*m + 1/4 turn 3) A 12-point shoulder bolt with a SMOOTH contact surface under the head (24mm head) = 200 N*m + 1/2 turn Unfortunately, I came upon someone not explaining the 3 different torque specs, so I mistakenly torqued at the lower one, and after a couple hundred miles, my axle bolt flew off while I was driving and some parts ended up getting messed up because of it. Because of this, people who do these tutorials should make note of the different specs according to what others may have to avoid accidents.

The universal WD-40. Basic properties are: The duration of protection for WD-40 will depend on the type of material to be coated and the method of exposure. Steel products treated with WD-40 can be stored under a cover or indoors for 1 year or longer. Outdoor storage - 6 months to a year. Storage outside in high humidity conditions - from 2 weeks to a month. LUBRICATES. WD-40 lubricates metal parts and moving mechanisms. Leaves no greasy or sticky residue. PERMEATES. WD-40 penetrates and frees rusted, seized, and frozen machinery. Provides smooth operation of mechanisms. PROTECTS. WD-40 protects metal surfaces from corrosion even in the most extreme conditions. CLEANSES. WD-40 easily removes dirt, grease, bitumen stains, glue residues. DISPLACES MOISTURE. WD-40 displaces moisture and forms a protective barrier against moisture. Restores electrical and electronic devices in the event of a short circuit and maintains their working condition.
I have mounted brakes for all those years and never using anything in between the hub/rotor/rim. It's really disgusing how people still doing like this because old grandpa told you to grease everything.
This channel has no clue on correct torque specs, people please find the info elsewhere. For starters the hub bolt is 200nm off the ground then 180° on the ground 80nm no where near enough ffs this is supposed to be a professional outfit. Use there info at your own risk.
Our videos are only for informative purpose. All regulatory replacements and values can be found directly in the technical documentation for your particular model of car or use the help of a car service.
Need some help, changing left front wheel bearing found a second wiring harness with wire broken, not sure where and what its for, speed sensor is intact
Unfortunately, it is not possible to answer your question, you can find this information in the technical documentation for the repair of your car. AUTODOC
Thank you for your feedback! You are right, after processing with copper grease, it should be cleaned along the working surface of the brake disc. Best regards, Autodoc Team!
