Excellent! I have the same vehicle and these vids on the cx 7 are so helpful. In fact I did the front brakes on mine watching your vid. Thanks again from Camano Island, Wa USA
Had to do this to replace the dust shields on the rear. Without your 100mm T55 tip, it would have been impossible. Manual just says to take the whole suspension apart! Thanks!
how many km did that car travel? was there too much noise in the cabin due to faulty wheel bearings?my cx 7' has 170 tkm and it's noisy at the rear end, for now I can't locate which bearing the noise is coming from.
Very informative video, thanks. I'll do this soon on my CX7 also. Question: while changing the rear hub, i need to change the drive shaft seal on the diff too, which is leaking a bit. Is there anything particular i need to think about when doing this? Can i simply pull out the drive shaft from the differential like when doing a FWD drive shaft? Best regards, Paul
hey about to do the same on my cx7, how do the bearing hold up? are they good quality? I dont really know which one to buy? ebay? any suggestion ? cheers mate
Why not loosen the upper and lower wishbone, to pull out the driveshaft completely? Removing and re-torquing these 4 Torx screws this way includes some risk to damage the cog ring. I mean these ones look pretty solid, but especially on newer cars these are more fragile and you can get all sorts of trouble with ABS, ESP and iTPMS systems, that may be expensive in diagnose and repair.

Great instructional video mate, what a pain probably would have taken me a week to sort haha
Haha so i did the r/h side first
Yep this is easy then went to the l/h side and it ended up being a pain in the but haha
Thank you! Helped me greatly.

It would be a good time to do it
I haven't done a rear shaft yet on the mazda but im guessing it would be the same mate
Take it easy

Been good so far mate 👍
But we have sold our cx7 now
Can you confirm that this is fairly similar to a 2008 CX-9 AWD?
@@martincstee5335 there are very similar mate

Cool tip mate
Nice!! Thank you for sharing!!👍🏾
No dramas mate
Would this be the same for most mazda suvs? I've got a 2013 cx5
I would say so the only difference would be AWD to FWD with no drive shaft
Looks like that bearing was putting up a good fight to stay in there
Yeah bro
hi, instead of using a t55 100mm, could i use instead a regular t55 with an extension bar?
You can try
but i found the abs ring to interfere with the socket
@@downtheshedwithbyron thats makes perfect sense. Thank you for the reply and also for the video.
No dramas bro
Thanks a lot real help
No dramas mate 👍
