Kia Sedona – Front wheel bearing Complete repair DETAILED

Howling roaring noise while driving? Follow along as I take you through the steps I used to troubleshoot and replace a failing wheel bearing.
This is a press fit style bearing, as simple as it may sound many will fail shortly after replacing or not last nearly as long as original. This is mostly due to improper pressing techniques.
Today I will share a couple methods that should help eliminate any concerns from hear on out. Hope you enjoy.

Great video. I have a 2005 Kia Sedona and had the wheel bearing replaced several times at a local repair shop. They must be damaging the bearing on the install b/c they keep going out. Additionally, It seems like there should be an outer seal and/or something to retail the proper pre-load on the bearing. Torquing the axle nut only compresses the spindle (hub?) and it seems the bearing will then separate while driving. I am at wits end on my 2005 Sedona and ready to take it to the scrap yard. I cannot keep haing the bearing replace every 2 months.

TheMrAlich says:

Are these "preloaded". Replaced two times in past month and going out again. I hear there are spacers and a special tool the dealer has to fix the wheel bearings.

Ken says:

Will, I have not seen any new videos lately.Whats the story? Thanks Ken

Keyvan Pezeshki says:

good hints about protecting inner race in processes,

Philip Bollig says:

I am new to bearing replacement, I have a 2006 Kia Sportage, can I just buy a hub assembly and replace the front wheel hub instead of pressing it out of the knuckle?

John Christensen says:

I replaced the tie rod, and the replacement has a nut without cotter key. Just a different way of doing it?
