If you want to book a wheel bearing replacement in Portobello, you can compare quotes from our network of thousands of garages and mechanics, find the best price and instantly book online.
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.
