Front Wheel Bearing Replacement

Model: Seat Ibiza 6L - Years 2002-2009
Part: Bearing

Obtain a replacement bearing. Lift the vehicle, secure it, and remove the wheel. Take off the metal shield protecting the retaining bolt located on the hub, which will also need to be unscrewed. If you encounter difficulties, use some penetrating spray. Dismantle the support assembly of the wheel until you can extract the driveshaft. Using a puller, remove the disc to access the bearing. Remove the bearing's retaining circlip and use a puller to free the bearing. Clean thoroughly from old grease. Then, place the new bearing inside after properly greasing it. Refit all the spacers that were previously removed.
