Compare Dacia Logan Mcv wheel bearing replacement quotes from specialist garages

Founded in 1966 and given the former Roman name for what is now Romania, Dacia is a small but mighty car manufacturer offering a range of award-winning, affordable vehicles. At the 2023 Auto Trader New Car Awards, Dacia earned the title of 'Best Value Brand' for the fifth time, and its cars are consistently recognised for their outstanding value.

Over 250,000 people have bought a Dacia since 2013, and the brand has more than eight million customers worldwide. Impressively, Dacia's best-selling model, the 1300, which was introduced during the Cold War, had a production run of 35 years.

A wheel bearing is made of a set of steel balls (ball bearings) or tapers (taper bearings) held together by a metal ring. It connects the wheel to the axle and allows it to rotate smoothly.

A wheel bearing replacement is required every 80,000 to 100,000 miles. The most obvious sign of a faulty wheel bearing is a grinding noise when the vehicle moves, which gets louder as it accelerates or turns. You may also notice a clunking noise that happens on uneven road surfaces.

Drivers often wonder whether it's possible to book a wheel bearing repair instead of a replacement. Unfortunately, the bearing is a sealed unit, so the only option is to replace it. Most garages offer wheel bearing services, so you don't need to worry about finding a specialist.

A typical wheel bearing replacement cost is between £150 and £300, depending on the type of car.
