Critical_Mass 10 Posted September 20, 2008 THe only thing i can help you with mate is how tight to have the hub nut. I learnt off a guide on how to do the bearings and it said on there to tighted the nut up finger tight, then using a wrench to tighen it up a tad more. It said to only use the weight of you hand on the wrench. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paul20v 0 Posted September 21, 2008 heater controls are a common fail front wheel bearings should not have failed that quick even with binding brakes (unless they have been binding a long time)as this will stuff the grease up in the bearings rear bearing as already said should be hand tight at the nut and just a tiny tweek more but only slightly squeeky brakes could be just a hard spot in the pads (did you bed them in when new) hope this helps a little.

BlueVR6 0 Posted September 21, 2008 Cheers for the help People!!! Thats what i thought about the bearings, they shouldnt go that quickly!! The brakes were only binding on for a small journey then i replaced the calipers!! Quick question on the brakes tho, when you say 'bed the brakes in' what does this mean? Didnt think i would need to worry about something like that as i renewed the pads and discs - all round!! Cheers again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
