Ive changed the bearing on on wheel twice in the same amount of months admittedly they were second hand but its the same wheel bearing thats gone! Ive noticed that she pulls to that side so i have a tracking issue which will be getting sorted next week am just wondering if this could be causing the bearing to go any ideas to confirm or defunct this theory would be great :)
-
they do get noisy and sloppy if you dont torque them up to the correct figure!!
-
it was torqued up to 110 nm which i think is about right and there was no play whatso ever a few days ago nows theres play at 12 and 6 and it looks like another bearing is needed :'(
-
110Nm is NOWHERE near enough....its closer to 300Nm (cant remember the exact figure at the moment)

320Nm :y. 32mm socket....long breaker bar :)
-
as said you failed!! lol you need a large torque wrench otherwise the next bearing will fail as quickly as this last one!!
-
Yep, 320Nm, remember from doing mine. 110Nm is the wheel bolt torque.
-
Thats where i went wrong i mustve read that instead off the wheel bearing one :'( lesson learnt :) cheers guys :y
