Mercedes Classe B - Video tutorial

Model: Mercedes Classe B W245, MK 1 - Years 2005-2011
Part: Bearing
Operation: How to replace the rear wheel bearing of a Mercedes Class B version W245.

In this video, we will see how to replace a bearing on the rear wheel of a Mercedes Classe B W245 version. First, we loosen the wheel bolts, then we lift the car and remove the wheel. Next, using a wire brush and WD-40, we thoroughly clean the brake caliper and then unscrew it with a 13mm wrench. We separate the caliper by removing the brake pads. Then, we unscrew the brake caliper mount and remove the caliper bracket. Using a wire brush, we clean the brake disc fastening elements, then unscrew the brake disc mount and remove it. Now, we clean the area and disconnect the ABS sensor, then we unscrew the wheel hub bearing mount. The hub must be removed with the bearing as it is a single piece. Now, we can install the new wheel hub along with the corresponding bearing. After tightening to 82 Nm, the bearing block should not tilt on the axle spindle. We reconnect the ABS sensor, tightening it to 9 Nm, then we need to spray it with copper grease. Now, we install the brake disc, tightening it to 9 Nm. After cleaning it, we place the brake caliper back with the brake pads. We spray copper grease on the part where the disc contacts the wheel rim, and clean the surface of the brake disc with a specific spray. After a few minutes, we can put the wheel back in place and lower the car. Job done.
