On the job
The job
VKBA 7128 replaces a worn front wheel bearing on the BMW 3 Series G20. It is a complete hub unit with the flange built in, pre-set and sealed at the factory, so there is no end-play to adjust and it bolts straight on. A worn bearing shows up as a hum that rises with road speed and changes when the car loads up in a bend.
In the box and alongside
The kit comes with four screws, so no used fasteners go back on. SKF recommends its special tool VKN 604 for the job. SKF lists two per axle, and with the wheel off it is the moment to check the brake discs, pads, the CV joint boot and the other side's bearing.
