Great and very methodical work as usual Peter. Love these kind of short but very informative content

Great video, about to change the bearings on my m550d. One thing made me flinch though - the moment where you used blow torch on your e39. Heating aluminium parts like that completely messes up their mechanical properties. I'd only do that if I was gonna get rid of the part I'm heating.

Good to see a job go by the numbers. I wonder how much run-flats influence the wear. Personally I change them out as a matter of course. Just preference.

Great vid. Why does BMW have to use special fasteners for EVERYTHING??!?? Drive's me crazy.

@nme700 Год назад

This is an excellent video. Thank you. Have you considered using a longer handled rachet? You would be surprised how much more torque you can put through it without having to resort to a cheater bar extension.

@PracticalEnthusiast Год назад

Thanks for watching! I've found that a simple cheater bar gives me the best of both worlds (at least when working without a lift).

Have you a video of the rear bearings being done?

@zildog 9 месяцев назад

Great vid. Super simple no BS, just efficient wrenching. I imagine the same is possible for the F87 M2? I don't know if you need to remove the suspension link to get this done but in any case, it seems like a relatively straightforward swap with the right tools. Would love to know if you did the same with the rears as I'm kinda dreading doing those!

@PracticalEnthusiast 9 месяцев назад

Thanks for the comment. I imagine the M2 would be very similar, however the torque specs are likely different. I haven't done the rear on this car, but I've done them on an Audi S3 rear. Not exactly the same thing, but outside of removing an axle nut, there wasn't much more to it.

@Norbino22 Год назад

Hello, is the procedure the same when replacing the front bearing on a 2011 BMW X3 F25? well thank you

@eL_aNcI Год назад

Hello, what is the tightening torque in Nm? Would it be the same for an f11 xDrive? Thanks and regards

@eminemin3537 Год назад

Please help me out, does the wheel bearing go on either side or there is a difference between left and right?

@suspiruh Год назад

Hi, what kind of symptoms do you feel? Only click or do you have vibrations?

@dudlus2757 Год назад

I tried, but the bolts holding the caliper bracket was not possible to loosen up... 😢

@pcassidyksu Год назад

I'm having very similar symptoms, with the front suspension sounding clunky overall. Did you end-up replacing the sway bars at some point too? Or was the noise you were hearing just these wheel bearings? Did you do the rear bearings as well?

@PracticalEnthusiast Год назад

I had some pretty loud clunks coming from the front suspension when I first bought the car, but then I shimmed the swaybar bushings to take up the extra slack that had formed. That got rid of most of the noise, but there still is some. I think it's either the struts or strut mounts (or both), because the swaybar links, suspension arm bushings, and ball joints are tight.

@diybillyc5000 Год назад

Sometimes that clicking could be the ABS sensor being activated by the turning bearing

@PracticalEnthusiast Год назад

I wondered if that could be causing it. I guess I didn't think there were moving parts related to the ABS sensor/magnet, but the clicking would indicate that something was moving.

@Reeltinyphish 6 месяцев назад

Followed this on my xi m sport f10 535, but for me the front drive shaft goes through the hub with a 17mm hex socket. All my old torq bolts securing the old hub on seem to be seized and the head is stripping when trying to remove. Ugh.

Torque sockets

@moffatphone 3 месяца назад

When you say T47 and then put TP47. Which is the correct one?

@PracticalEnthusiast 3 месяца назад

Sorry about the confusion. You want to use torx plus bits on this car. Those will have the TP prefix.

@thomasstorrs6345 Год назад

Yet another problem with run flats and low profile.

@PracticalEnthusiast Год назад

Yep. These run flats have a lot of tread left (and are only 3 years old) but I'm wondering if switching them to regular tires will actually save me money in the long run.

@thomasstorrs6345 Год назад

@Practical Enthusiast I switched to regular tires non run flats once they were worn out at 24k miles. The bmw handles much better. Less expensive also. I have a green goo kit, tire inflator and tire plug kit in the car just in case.

My 2001 Audi with 250k kms never needed a wheel bearing and I've been driving it like I stole it. Not to mention my 18" Mich PS4's were 30% cheaper than my mate's 16" or 17" runflat crap on his equally crap BMW 116i

@dannyrahadian5406 Год назад

hi , can you please help me , what is the ticking sound come from , bmw f10 when turning front right wheel . ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GH3l1cEN7Nc.html i almost tried every solution , the mechanic are give up .

@PracticalEnthusiast Год назад

That's a good question. It looks like you've had most of the front end suspension parts replaced. It's hard to tell how loud the sound is from the video, but it doesn't seem too loud. Nice video by the way 👍 It sounds to me like a rubber-insulated part that is under tension, and when the wheel is turned all the way, the part shifts slightly in its rubber mount and makes a "tick" sound. The interesting thing is it doesn't make the tick noise when turning back the other way. You can see the sway bar end link flex some in the video, which makes me think that it is putting some strain on the sway bar. My guess is that the sway bar is shifting slightly in the mounting bushings and that is making the tick sound. Unfortunately the bushings are molded into the sway bar on these cars, so a complete sway bar replacement may be needed. However, you could try lubricating the sway bar bushings to see if the noise changes or goes away.

@James0788 Год назад

So I’ve just done this job on my 6 series f06. I tightened to 60lbs feet as I watched an f30 RU-vid video. Recently hearing humming. Could it be that it’s not torqued enough?

@PracticalEnthusiast Год назад

I don't know about the F06, but seeing as how it's bigger than an F10, 60ft/lbs sounds low. Also, it's likely a torque-to-yield bolt like on the F10 so a strict torque value isn't correct anyway.

@James0788 Год назад

So as long as it’s tight it doesn’t matter too much? We gave it some force

@James0788 Год назад

@@PracticalEnthusiastif i torque them again to a higher amount will that cause problems?
