OK Steve, will wait for the call

Front wheel bearing is not a difficult job, does need a 320Nm torque wrench though.

I fitted a "buypartsby" one .. less than £30.. lasted 3000 miles and failed in France. Only one available was a Quentin Hazel one ... €200    at Newent it was discovered it had excesssive play so ended up saying "sod it" and went GM £121 (with trade card)

Really wish I had gone genuine the first time, the difference in quality was easily noticeable straight out of the box.

Just my thoughts

[Mr Gav]

I replaced both of mine with ones from Autovaux, about £60 IIRC. Both have now done over 10k and are fine.

Anyone looking for a 320nm torque wrench, Halfords do one just short of 320, cant remember if it goes up to 300 or 310 on the dial, but it will take the extra adjustment by judging the increments on the gauge. £75 iirc

doubt we'll find one cheaper capable of 320nm....  ?

 Tip from taxi al i think.

Ah! That's interesting ............ £75 is a piddle in the ocean compared with what I've just forked out on her Smart

[Elite Pete]

I've had the Halfords large torque wrench for about 3 years now and it works well
