How to Replace the Front Wheel Bearing

Model: Audi A4 B6 - Years 2000-2004
Part: Bearing

After safely lifting the car, remove the wheel. Next, take off the brake caliper and the brake rotor. Unscrew the central hub bolt. At this point, you need to remove the entire wheel support, starting with the lower control arms. Once the nuts are removed, use a hammer to gently pry and free the pin from its seat. Now, free the upper pins, then unscrew the two cable supports from the back. You can now remove the entire assembly and pull out the remaining part of the hub from the back. Next, from the back, unscrew the four bolts that hold the actual bearing. Now you can replace the bearing. Reinsert the hub carrier using a suitable press tool or similar, and proceed to reassemble the entire support, securing it to the respective pins. Reinsert the central hub bolt and reposition the brake rotor with the help of a wheel nut while you reattach the brake caliper. Reassemble the cable supports, tighten the central hub bolt, and reinstall the wheel. Car model: Audi A4 B6
Required tools: wrenches and/or sockets 10, 13, 16, 17, 18, 21 mm, hammer, pry bar, M12 torx wrench.
