Rear wheel bearing for Golf

[b1llyb0y]

Hi all,

I have a rear wheel bearing that has gone on my 2.0 TDI .. VW wants $450 for a replacement ..

Does anyone know an online supplier of these? or know where else I can get one cheaper?

Cheers all!

Hi Bazzle,

Looking at their site, they dont support the BKD engines as these were never delivered to the USA.

I dont know if they therefore would have any wheel bearings for my model?

My money is on them all being the same on normal Golfs.

Unless it Specifies R32, they'll all be the same.

I have a noise coming from the rear and I'm not sure what it is.... What does the sound of a failed or failing bearing sound like?

A bit of a whine or whirr that may change note as you load up when turning.

Thanks Bazzle, I'll have it checked out as that's what it sounds like to me.

The car is due for its 60k service in a month or so but it runs out of warranty before then so I'll have to get it looked at sooner.
