I hate when crap goes wrong. So I have had this problem in the rear end. Initially I thought it was bearing related... Of course it was, but the actual (hmm I dont know what its called) the part that the wheel studs are attached to. probably the hub. anywho it was ground down probably 1mm and therefore was causing the bearing to fail. So now not only do I have new rear bearings, but a new passenger side hub....

Oh and about a grand less.... If I had more time, I would have done it myself. I am a pure DIY'er but I just have zero time right now, and its a couple day job as you have to get the bearings pressed etc... I hate paying for labour.... Grrrrr

 

Sorry to hear for your problem. At least it's all fixed now and you can enjoy the car again

 

Should not be a grand to replace just the bearing and hub

Bearing $50
Hub $125
To get them pressed ~$20
Labor $100-200

Under $400 at max IMO

 

Yea I wish....

I did both rear end bearings and the hub was $400

I know I could have done this job myself to save the labour (about $400) But like I said, I had no time and needed it done then...

 

Doesn't take long, yank the bearing/hub out at night and have someone press it the next morning. Finish the job that day before work..
