Our 2013 Lexus GS350 (4th generation) has provided us with 127,000 trouble free miles up until now. Lately when I have been driving the car I have noticed a groaning sound coming from the left front wheel, which tells me I have a wheel bearing on its way out. Honestly, I'm impressed that the original wheel bearings have lasted this long. The front driver side wheel bearing is usually the first to go since they are subjected to curb bashing the most (think drive through, toll both, etc). In this video I replace my worn wheel hub assembly with a new one from NSK. I recommend you purchase a quality wheel bearing because this is a job you don't want to do again anytime soon. This video should also be helpful for owners who have a GS300, RC250, RC350, IS250, and IS350 since all of these cars share the same hub assembly from my GS350.
Below are the parts and tools that I used to complete the job. Your support is much appreciated!
Note: In America the left side is the driver side and the right side is the passenger side.
