Any way to find out wheel bearing size before removal?
« on: June 23, 2013, 05:29:43 pm »
So I need a new rear wheel bearing. It seems 30 and 32mm sizes are listed for my Ed30. Is there anyway of finding out the correct size before I take it apart?
Thanks

Ring the dealer with your VIN and they should tell you the part number which you can cross reference for an after market one if you wish.
