Wheel bearings

[Optimistictim]

Hey guys

I'm a month in to my first mk5 ownership and I am loving it! The cam follower replacement was a bit of a mare (banjo!) but was pretty fun at the time. I definitely should have bought the 1/4 ratchet set!

So this is a complete newbie question. Do you go for OEM or after market wheel bearings?

Where do you get parts from? I feel nervous going into my local vw dealer in case they see through me and realise I'm a newb and laugh at me.

Cheers!

I wouldn't be worried about going aftermarket. Euro car parts of a 30% sale this weekend 'sale30' promo code on the website.

When you get them can you post back on here where you got them from and how much ta.
Think mine need doing soon.

I replaced my two rear hub bearing assy.'s with aftermarket hubs. I ordered SKF from a site but FAG was sent. Both make oem equipment for VW so you are getting aftermarket bits regardless.
