Greg71 Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 Hi guys, I've got what I think is a whining front wheel bearing on my A6 C7, before I have a go at replacing it, is there any hidden problems I need to know about? Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasG Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 Yes...it's a !Removed!! Watch your ABS ring, and be very careful with the sensors for the lights/height etc. if you have them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThomasG Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 That's an ok price. That's about what I paid a couple of months ago. Now wait for the rest of them to go...they seem to have a fixed lifespan. That was my second. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gavin70248 Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 It's a fairly easy job if you have the correct spline tool, you can do it without taking suspension off as Audi reduced the size of the knuckle to allow access to the bearing bolts. Can be done in under 2 hours. Gavin. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
