Replacing rear wheel bearing for my Citroen C5 X7 and analysis of the failure 

When comparing Citroen or PSA group body protection, rust stuff, it’s minimal to german cars manufactured pre 2010. Still, not an easy job to do without proper tools, props to you for great video!

Unlike in the front you don't have to remove the sensor in the back. Trough that rust it will often break while removing. It will not interfere with the bearing. Just clean it. You also may not remove the mudguard. Cut that inner ring of the bearing with a small cutting blade of a Dremel and it comes of hiting it with the chisel. Offical workshop instruction for thightning is 250 Nm ± 25 Nm. Thanks for showing! ;-)

Regarding the heat shield….I sandblasted mine and powdercoated them after. Best method for saving them in a long run. Cheers

hi . can u tell me if it is a good car for the money ? you are working a lot on it it seams .... is it worth ? it is expensive repairs in your opinion ?

9:00 odgręcamy 3 śruby osłony . Nakrętkę centralną 40 na dzwigni 150cm. Młotek, uderzenia z różnych miejsc w piastę od tyłu. Wylatuje przedna część piasty w pi...u. Następnie przecinakiem uderzamy pomiędzy bierznię i aluminiową obudowę, na dzwigni z przecinaka wysuwamy bierznie.* Dobrze przed jest ocenić osłonę , tarczę i klocki. Ewentualnie wymienić wszystko razem. * przy braku ściągacza lub niechcenia się szukania jego. 17:00-17:12 bez przesady , jedno, dwa puknięcia wystarczy. Zazwyczaj się nie odkręca.

I Changed my C5 X7 2008 in the UK using this method. My manual bearing puller method was slightly different but worked. Also, did the full maintenance following your other video. Enjoyed both videos. Can you make one on brake fluid change? That will be super.

Top tip never wear hand watch when fixing a car ,i broke 3 in the row in that way

Ich wünschte du würdest irgendwo in Deutschland wohnen 😢, du bist ein guter Mechaniker 😊ich fahre auch den C5 Bj 2008. ich war in vielen Werkstätten, weil mein Auto von vorne rechts beim leichten beschleunigen Vibrationen verursacht. Jeder sagt was anderes in der Diagnose. Bin richtig verzweifelt 😭. Tolles Video, hat Spaß gemacht zuzuschauen ❤

ha......you're right.....that is realy an expensive..... piece of sheet......😂😂😂😂😂

How would you go on on removing the wheel hub to have a toolshop use their press to swap wheel bearings?

Thank you 👍

Ok

Großartig! Great!

Come and change to me💪👏

Could all that rust be due to salt on the roads? You live in a place with much snowfall, and it is known that vehicles in such places have issues with salt and rust. That metal....ahm.....piece of sheet.....was realy bad.

Is it possible to open up the new bearing without damaging it, in order to add some extra grease? I often find that new spare parts like bearings and joints come with too little grease, which I believe reduces (perhaps deliberately) their life span. On e.g. ball joints I always try to lift the rubber gaiters and fill up properly with good grease.

Great stuff!

Very good video

How do you release the electric parking brake to keep it loose? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-a_eAK6PFU18.html
