Wheel bearing choices

[bernsaudi]

Time for me to do the rear bearings on the avant, I gather it is 82mm but rather than oem I was wondering if anyone knew of some higher quality bearings that I may be able to get?

I went through 2 sets of fronts in the last 4 years and this is the first rear as far as I remember.

its nothing wrong with the bearings; its the grease inside; its nothing or very little grease inside.. open the bearing seal very carfully; and have some of the MOBIL xhp222 grease; and click the seal nicely together... then mont the bearing nicely in the hub..
do not press in the innerring; but in the outer ring; then you does press the senter in you need to have some of backing in the senter... if not you does make a acsess mark in the bearing; and the bearing will last only 6mnd...

You wont get better quality that the genuine Audi part, just make sure it is fitted correctly though

If you try 4a0498625, its the front kit for an A4 but carries the same bearing in it....and its 50% or so less than the S2 rear bearing on its own!

try TPS as I got my bearing from them

It's eemotorspares but I think if you search it and not just in shop section? It's there as its saved as a saved search on my eBay?

Try this number 160716397120 in your search on eBay and it will fetch up eemotorspares and the S2 avant rear wheel bearing I know it right cause I had them put it on when I had them get me one.

Hope this helps?

On the Avant the front and rear bearings are the same,I bought all 4 from Pete Reeve @ Quattrocorner
