Help Please.Bearing wont fit hub.

[Skull]

sorry it was 75mm - 82mm.

basically i was right, you have the audi 80 bearing there, not the s2 bearing.

Bearing is not right by the sounds, as Skull said measure the OD should be 82mm
75mm OD is a coupe rear bearing

So in Audi's infinate wisdom, well the parts guy ,even though i told them and gave a reg from an S2 avant they have supplied me with the wrong bearing. And you guys say it should be 82mm o/d??

S2 hubs part no?

PT no 895 615A

[Skull]

the bearing size is an engine power related thing

all audi b3 b4 under 150hp = 75mm

all audi b3 b4 over 150hp = 82mm bearing

front and rears are the same, quattro or FWD it doesent matter...

you must tell to dealer the exact part no of the bearing and for all part you will buy for the care, otherwise you will be desapoined.

So does anyone know the part number for the 82 mm bearing??

cheers Guys for the help

According to my vagcat would these numbers be it
75mm it's 8A0498625
82mm it's 893498625E

[Smiley]

i can confirm the number
893 498 625 E for the front
4D0 407 625 E for rear.
Just keep in mind "82mm all around", then you get the right pieces..

893498625E is the number on vagcat.com for the front S2 avant bearing.

Get yourself signed up to that site to help avoid this kind of thing happening As someone said, the only way to guarantee getting the right part is to give them the part number

I always look at vagcat (etka) before I order OEM parts, and give them the partnumber otherwise you can be sure its wrong

[pasbogdan]

The aftermarket suppliers do not have the database always right.And it is hard to do that considering they sell parts for all brands.This is the case when you buy online.When someone finds the part it is his job to search for oe code and aftermarket similar products.

What was worrying in this case is i ordered these bearing over the phone at an Audi main dealership here in UK.

Thanks to everyone for your help it's much appreciated.Once correct bearing received i can carry on with 5 stud conversion which i am looking forward to completing but first subbframes out, bushes in everywhere,Gen Blue RS2 top mounts for that brand new ride and all on my back or backside. I do envy those who have a nice big garage to work in with a lift. Can't have it all i suppose.
