07 G35 Sedan Wheel Bearing Issue...

I did a search and saw previous threads.. still a little confused. I get the noise and everything but now its at the pricing stages and I always get taken advantage of because I don't know much.

first, Aamco said its the front two wheel bearings, for parts and labor they want $1,200... Pep boys is saying close to 1k... im looking online and some of these threads, and I see people talking about getting wheel bearings for $150??? i dont get it, am I missing something?

Please someone get back to me!!!! MY CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY TOO!

PM me your vin number, and I will tell you what wheel bearings can cost
some have the ability to change out the wheel bearings by themselves, others is the complete hub assembly!

Thanks!

Well, it's the whole hub assembly, I wouldn't think more than 1 hour a side, the bearings are full hub assembly, which we keep in stock, how they couldn't tell you a price is crazy, I have them g35driver price of 153.00 hope that helps you, I can't imagine that costing more than 650$ parts and labor

there would be shipping charges involved because I am in Texas and you are in NY i think, however I bet it's less than the mark up the place doing the work would charge you, if they will install geniune infiniti parts that you bring in, which I wouldn't think would be a problem
