    FWD Rear Wheel Bearings????

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    ok first off yes i did search and i could not find anything.

    The car is a 98 A4 FWD 1.8T

    I know i have a bad wheel bearing on the drivers side rear since when i turn left the noise is not heard. the problem i ran into was i was going to replace it myself but i heard that the wheel bearing is actually inside the rotor assembly on FWD. So i went to ECS tunning but they dont sell the whole assembly. does anyone know where i can get one or if i am wrong about this? i really would rather do the work myself i hate taking her to the shop and having someone elses hands all over her

    These are the FWD rear wheel bearings.
    Rear Bearings
    They are indeed pressed into the rear rotors. Great time to change out the rotors at the same time.

    I took my 97 fwd to the dealer to do it since I am kinda lazy lol....they charged like 200 or so bucks. I figured it was worth it considering the time and everything involved

    Rotors do not come with wheel bearings.

    They are sold separately, but must be installed together.
