This video shoes you how change a wheel bearing on a VW T5. It's a rear bearing but the front is the same but you have to remove the drive shaft first.
Hi all just a quick note, I watched your video and must say what a great help it was. I have the same kit, I thought how ever I broke the bolt trying to get the bearing out. The reason being I used the black plates to remove like you and after breaking the bolt I realised this was wrong in my set!!! I then got a new bolt and swapped to the silver set of pullers and the bearing came out as easy as that. Just thought I would let you all know, just worth checking before you start.
Thank you so much for this video! Without it I would probably never had dared to attempt this on my own :) Last saturday me and my friend changed the rear bearings for our 2WD vans/buses. First the left side for mine and then the right one for my friends. Only difference was that on my T5 we only removed the caliber without taking the pads off. Then on my friends T5 we only removed the disc while the brake caliber was on and fully intact/assembled. Only difficulty we had was when everything was finished and we couldn't get the one part of the installation tool to come out behind the hub. Quite a lot of hammering was needed. Next time have to try with lots of thick grease. Anyway thanks again!
Be careful. Not all the kits are same. In my kit the silver flanges were for removing bearings and black for pressing the bearing in. I followed carelessly this video and used the black ones first. In the beginning I thought my bearings are just rusted in, so I applied a bit more force and I realized they are wrong only after the bearings on the shaft exploded under pressure.
Colour of the plate is irrelevant where as the correct size/fitment is paramount. First and foremost If you use the wrong plate you shouldn't be doing the job 🙄
Thanks for this - really helped me change my bearings on my T5.1 One issue I had was with the rings for refitting as it would not fit in between the hub flange and retaining ring so I couldn't clamp them together. I noticed on my new hub (FAG) it had a radius in that gap so a quick dress up of the plates with a grinder and flap disc and fitted no problem after it had the edge dressed up. After that it was a piece of cake following your guide. Cannot believe how quiet my van is now. Cheers!!
Good video I’ve got the same removal tool I’ve done a few of these I’ve always had to drill out and replace the abs sensor I’ve probably been unlucky, I’ve also realised you can get away with leaving the abs sensor in situ just be careful cleaning the hub with the grinding wheel
Great video. Thank you. I am just doing the rear bearings on my T5with it and it looked like it could be done with the sensor in situ ....I was dreading it would get damaged during the install though, then I’d have to take it out. Much easier to take the sensor out with the bearing out and if I put them back in, they would be easier to replace if I had to....obvs two new sensors are needed....ah well.... I wonder how much a garage would charge for this?
Thank you for this video. It shows how quick and easy it can be done. I Ssupect one of my rear wheel bearings. I know now that I will do It my self. Thank you.
Hi and thanks for the video. So far so good but although I have the abs sensor bolt out, it wont budge. Any tips on removing the sensor intact or should I just buy a replacement in preparation. Thanks
Hi mate ,I messaged u a week or so about where to get the puller that you used I dont know if you remember, I went to change it today I did exactly wot you done after watching your vid 4 times ,but I couldn't get the bolt to move at all even snapped the end off my power bar, any ideas many thanks carl
Tried to extract the old wheel bearing from the hub using the same tool as in the video, ended up snapping a wrench as the pressure was immense. I was also using a scaffold pole to no avail. solid in situ. Hammer time next.
I have changed these on vehicles with 300,000 miles on for the first time and they came straight out like you see here in the video. I would be more tempted to use the press than hammer if it refused to budge in this manner.
Thanks for the video, very helpful. I've been working on cars most of my life and it's "shit" like this that pisses me off! They like to reinvent the wheel, why change something for the sake of it, compelling you to buy yet another "special" tool! Oh and there isn't just one size, depending on your model! I just want to rewind 30 years, now you know why us old people are always f**king moaning!😂😂😂
Great video. I'm looking at a set of the bearing remover tools and it says on the description that it's only for the front bearings. Do you know if it will work on rear bearings too. Also to mention that I have a pickup with 4 motion. Would like one set that does all the way round which I'm sure it would do but am a little uncertain. Any information would be appreciated. Nice to see a video here with the job done right! Thanks
Hi Robc509 the gen2 bearing removal tool that I have here has done front and rear on both 2wd a d 4wd T5 Transporters. Obviously there is the added step of needing to remove the driveshaft on the front axle or any of the 4wd versions. You can do them in place or release the hub and do this in the vice. I recently had to do this on a 6r Polo as the bearing would not pull in straight using the kit alone so I used the kit to hold the bearing correctly while I pressed it in in the press rather than using the draw bar, It was neater and qiicker.
mk2sixteen great, thank you for replying. I had thought as much as the bearing and hub is the same front and back on the transporter. Again thank you for the informative video and replying, now I better get online and buy a kit 👍
@@Robc509 this is the kit I bought. Its slightly different to the others but I know it's well made and fits perfectly. rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F273628592913
Hello! I wanted to ask, when you take two black seats (around 9:00) you put them inside, but at the end, only one part falls out when you already have pressed the bearing in. So my question here is how do you take the other part out of the black seat or whatever it is called? In my car, it is sucked up, and impossible to take out.
the seat or seats are in two parts. I definitely pulled two put but as one unit. when you clean the housing up with a wire brush or wire wheel as I did I also cleaned out where the rear seats sit so it comes out easily. I hope this helps.
I had the same issue that " black sleeve" was going to get pulled into the back of the hub as you pulled the bearing it , and and it was just a tiny bit bigger than the Hub it was trying to go in pissed , Anyway outside on the road van stuck Saturday afternoon halfway done bearing out , driving round to find a machine shop open , we took the black sleeve the thinner one and got them to lathe it down , All done and pulled it in , the rear of the hub was cleaned to shinny metal they have made the tool incorrect , I did think of going that step up and getting the laser one to see if it's the same
Hi mk2sixteen! What to do, if my old bearing won't let go out? I used to trying with like 1m lever but didn't help, wrench gets busted... any ideas ? Regards
With the pressure applied tried shocking the outside of the bearing carrier with a heavy copper mallet. This shocking method works on stubborn ball joints. You are not looking to crack or break the bearing carrier remember .
if you do the front folks, you dont have the wee knobbly bits to line up on the black and silver rings . also, you need to split lower ball joint and drop drive shaft out
Ha. I'll happily do it for you, I've seen plenty of people butcher this job unnecessarily, which is why I made the video. I'd opt to have the car 4 wheel tracked in your case with an unexpected repeated failure. (mk2_16v@hotmail.com)
can you send me the model number of your puller please the firm who sells them say its only for front wheel drive and front hubs only also the bearing is fixed to the hub with abs ring does it remove complete unit on the left rear thanks
I choose to remove the abs sensor as the reluctor ring is inside the bearing itself. If yours doesn't come out as easily as mine did you could leave it there but I'm not sure if the besring damages it on removal. The bearing removal procedure is the same for front wheels as for rears or any driven wheels (syncro) except you need to remove the driveshaft also.
@@mk2sixteen thanks ive got abs trackion control and brake assist lights on rear wheels locking up when I put lock on ive changed the wheel speed sensor still got lights on their was bits of black flaking paint and bits of black rubber inside the bearing when I looked down the hole where the wheel speed sensor goes in I'm thinking it must be the bearing thanks mate
I’ve been in the trade 20 years mostly on Vauxhall’s and now have moved to VAG stuff. I’ve used this tool for the first time last week but was changing the whole hub assembly and bearing so used it on the bench. It’s actually quite a good idea. Do they come out all the time of have you had any seized and had to resort to a press?. Great video 👍🏼
I have had two stuck ones both on nearside rear . Thats when you just have to bite the bullet and pull the radius arm and press it out using the cradle from this kit. It was only stuck as I could not exert enough pressure by hand. Both stuck ones popped straight out with 5 or 6 tons on it. Other than those 2 they have all been like you see here.
I've not had to resort to a press as yet and yes I've had a few really fight me but the kits got it every time. I've seen bearings unseat soon after being fitted by others mainly because the clipped spring plate was not seated correctly due to a dirty rebate. This can be prevented with cleaning it thoroughly and just very gently prizing the clips ever so slightly out a bit further to ensure good solid location.
I've just put a link to this excellent video on the Brickyard forum alonside many other 'how to do's' but your security settings on youtube won't allow it to work. If you would rather it wasn't there I will delete it no problem but if you are happy can you have a look at your settings and see if third party links aren't allowed or something? :-) Transporterman (AKA T5 TDI)
******CAUTION.***** A few people including me have kits that use the opposite colours for the clamshell plates (SILVER to remove and BLACK to install), my kit was like this but came with no instruction so by following your video caused me to bend the install plates and break the clip on the bearing. I now need a new b earring and another kit. Can you 'pin' a comment to to warn people of this or edit your video to warn people that their clamshells may differ in colour.
wowmartwowmart: Dear value customer, Thanks for your mail. We are so sorry that this is suitable for the Front Wheel,not rear .we afraid you bought the wrong item. In this condition,what about we help you to cancel the order and you try to buy in other shop?is this acceptable for you?we are so sorry that we do not have the Rear Wheel Bearing Tools.hope you can kindly forgive us. Look forward to hearing from you.
rebate; plural noun: a step-shaped recess cut along the edge or in the face of a piece of material, typically forming a match to the edge or tongue of another piece.
Don't do that with press I did million times with hydraulic press for customers and this one time I did in my car bearing last 8000 km (FAG not cheap ) you have to support outher bearing shell not hub I did and have to do again with CV joint as bearing damaged CV joint as well lucky enough it was on parking lot speed 5km/ h
FAG are cheap replacements ! Getting the rear wheels correctly aligned prevents premature bearing failure. By using the hydraulic press you press on the incorrect surfaces of the bearing potentially causing misalignment issues. A genuine VW bearing tool is as near as damn it to this tool as to makes no difference.
If you press this in a press you cannot press the bearing face as the hub is in the way. This tool allows you to press on the bearing outer directly which cannot be done in a hydraulic shop press. Rear wheel alignment is absolutely critical once the bearing and hub have been replaced. To use a hydraulic shop press you must strip and remove the rear wishbone to do so. You could then choose to use this tool in conjunction with that press.
how shitty is this design? I don't know why VW Audi cheaped out and made these press on style bearings when they could have used the later model style bolt in hub/bearing designs - so there's no pressing/pulling....The laborsome part on this sucks.
TG 77 it's possibly due to them being the 2nd generation bearings not 3rd gen which are bolt in as you describe.and quite possibly were not available when this vehicle was designed before its release date in 2002/3. It's a poor design and a p.i.t.a. but at least it doesn't involve its removal in a press.
mk2sixteen that's right I've done to these on my MK2 golf and I hated every second of it. It's a good thing that after 30 plus years VW Audi decided to step up their game and making more maintenance friendly replacement part like so many of the other auto manufacturers have done in the last 20 years.
Nice to watch an old school mechanic doing a job right. Well done sir
Thank you.

Volvo bearing/hub assemblies come the same way. You called that tool a push plate? I've never seen one before.

mk2sixteen wow it shouldn’t be that tight must of been seized up if it’s like that it needs heating up first
How much extra work is it to do the wheel bearing change on the front wheel? Driveshaft etc?
Just used the kit but never herd a click but no clips protruding all flush is this OK.
where did u buy the hub bearing from
Have you a recent link to the kit you used as the old link no longer works. Many Thanks.
Hi, great vid!! Are the hub bearings the same across all T5s? (t28 t30 t32)? Do you need to replace the abs sensor? Or just remove and refit?
Thanks
Remove and refit unless you happen to kill it, which can happen if its stuck in and it dies getting removed.
Great vid thanks
like from Kazakhstan
Hola , excelente video , en que otros vehículos se usa tu herramienta , gracias
It's used on any gen 2 bearing although sizes differ from car to car. IIRC this kits used on VW Touareg and Porsche Cayenne 2003-2010

Nice well done vid.
well lit.
good info and practices.(assuming axle stands were used ??/...lol)
Yes axle stands were definitely used, the jack was there just in case. you can never be too cautious.
Why the black shrouds for removal and then the silver ones for refitting the new? Thanks.
Hi they are different sizes, so the larger allows the bearing to be pulled in, the smaller allows it to be pulled out.

thanks
hi. search on ebay for gen2 wheel bearing you'll find it.
Brilliant thank you
Is this for a 1993 eurovan MV>?
to finally seat the new bearing i would tap around the large black disc part with a soft drift when tightening
agreed a very good idea.
When you wind it in you can hear the clips clicking into place and it's properly home.

Rebate?? Recess surely
rebate; plural noun:
a step-shaped recess cut along the edge or in the face of a piece of material, typically forming a match to the edge or tongue of another piece.
Don't do that with press I did million times with hydraulic press for customers and this one time I did in my car bearing last 8000 km (FAG not cheap ) you have to support outher bearing shell not hub I did and have to do again with CV joint as bearing damaged CV joint as well lucky enough it was on parking lot speed 5km/ h
FAG are cheap replacements ! Getting the rear wheels correctly aligned prevents premature bearing failure. By using the hydraulic press you press on the incorrect surfaces of the bearing potentially causing misalignment issues. A genuine VW bearing tool is as near as damn it to this tool as to makes no difference.
If you press this in a press you cannot press the bearing face as the hub is in the way. This tool allows you to press on the bearing outer directly which cannot be done in a hydraulic shop press. Rear wheel alignment is absolutely critical once the bearing and hub have been replaced.
To use a hydraulic shop press you must strip and remove the rear wishbone to do so. You could then choose to use this tool in conjunction with that press.
Lot of job using this tools . No way
It is by far the easiest way to do it.
how shitty is this design? I don't know why VW Audi cheaped out and made these press on style bearings when they could have used the later model style bolt in hub/bearing designs - so there's no pressing/pulling....The laborsome part on this sucks.
TG 77 it's possibly due to them being the 2nd generation bearings not 3rd gen which are bolt in as you describe.and quite possibly were not available when this vehicle was designed before its release date in 2002/3.
It's a poor design and a p.i.t.a. but at least it doesn't involve its removal in a press.
mk2sixteen that's right I've done to these on my MK2 golf and I hated every second of it. It's a good thing that after 30 plus years VW Audi decided to step up their game and making more maintenance friendly replacement part like so many of the other auto manufacturers have done in the last 20 years.
TG 77 mk2 golf have traditional press in bearings that can't be done on the car. They are easy if you have the required skills.
