Thanks for the instruction. It is great with just the photos. Mine is a
Nissan Murano and I think it is likely very much the same. 

Sean George says:

Very helpful information, thank you for sharing. My 08 Quest has 110K and
its definitely time for replacement on the drivers side. Your info provided
has assured me that I can and will do the job myself and save a few bucks.
After all, I did pull off changing the spark plugs at 100k. Those plugs
were the MOST difficult automotive project I have EVER accomplished myself.
After doing those plugs once, I don’t think I would ever do that on a Quest
again. Practice doesn’t make that one any easier…..

Nader shahen says:

Thank you so much man just replace both sides

sonja mack says:

awesome thank you. seems easy enough .

Edgar Gonzalez says:

I replaced mine on my Nissan Maxima you’re the same but my ABS sensor
turned on and my vcd and traction do you have an idea think you could help
me

Edgar Gonzalez says:

And do the roader stay luse

Steve Elder says:

Never mind..I did a little more research and found that if the sensor is
left in…it will get sheared off when removing the wheel hub…guess I’ll
just have to take my chances on the other side…wish me luck.. :)

Steve Elder says:

Why does the ABS sensor need to be removed? The reason I;m asking is
because when removing the 10mm bolt holding it in, it broke and i had to
redrill the hole and clean it out with a tap…I’m afraid the same thing
will happen on the other side…I can’t see what leaving it in will do..

Koko kaka says:

did you change both front sides wheel bearings? I am hearing some groaning
noise some times probably on the passengers side.

Yeoman Castro says:

you have given me the confidence to give it a shot. thank you

nerdydaddyo says:

No apology necessary. This was an amazing video and you saved me a ton of
money. Thank you!

R Garner says:

Thank you so much for this video! Hoping with your great help, we can get
this done at home!

toyotrustPR says:

Great video and thank you for the torque specs.

I have a 06 Murano AWD. Do you know if the toruqe would be different? And
if an Auto parts store has rental tools for a wheel bearing assembly? Good
video by the way.

The provided specs are from the 2004 Nissan Quest factory service manual.
If you look around, they are out there on the web.

see mike says:

I have an 04 G35x, and I’m doing a wheel bearing change, @ 145k. My car
starts shaking on the driver side when I hit 61 mph

dial2fast says:

5. Hold gas pedal down for 12 seconds (Service Engine Soon light blinks
slowly) 6. Release pedal and wait 10 seconds 7. Hold gas pedal down for 10
seconds and don’t release pedal (Service Engine Soon light blinks faster)
8. Turn ignition to OFF 9. Release gas pedal 10. Wait 10 seconds 11. Start
the car and the SES light will be off

see mike says:

I cannot find the entire wheel hub w/bearing to save money life at a decent
price, so I purchased the bearings and I’m going to have to press them in
the original hub.

dial2fast says:

I have not had to reset the ABS light, but it’s just a general CEL check
engine light, you can either see if your local parts store is willing to
reset for you, or you can try the below: NOTE: you should have a watch on
hand when doing this, and also don’t focus so much on the flashing of the
light 1 Turn key to ON Position (second last position) 2. Wait 3 seconds 3.
Pump gas pedal 5 times (then release pedal) 4. Wait 10 seconds

dial2fast says:

Also if you don’t have any problems, then leave it alone. This is also
something you don’t have to do in pairs. Fix whichever side is broken but
of course if you want to tackle both at the same time, you can.

dial2fast says:

You are welcome.

dial2fast says:

The spark plugs on this VQ is a pain. I have not done mine yet, but I may
try it sometime in the future, but not anytime soon.

eddy house says:

does the hub compartment have to have the heat shield? i destroyed mine
hitting the bearing with a hammer and hear a scraping sound as im driving

Edmund Mendez says:

Wow, it looks so easy, no need for pulleys and presses. Thanks so much man.
Can you do a spark plug video also lol? Please please please

Andrei Moroz says:

Good video but you are showing Hub Assembly replacement not the wheel
bearing. Also it’s no “foot-pounds” torque is measured in pound-foot.

Roy Lewis says:

Very good instruction! The stills were well composed and detailed. Your
narration gave good info on bolt sizes, which is often lacking in repair
manual descriptions. Really enjoyed this video! A few questions, if I
may… Is 60-70K miles to replacement a common range for cars of this
class? What do you believe the root cause of failure, after this length of
service? Timken is a first rate American company and their bearing
assembles should out perform the OEM product. RL

Adrianicillin says:

Thanks for the tutorial!

dial2fast says:

Hi Roy, I think it’s unusual for wheel bearing to fail so early. However
when I was doing my internet research on this generation of Nissan Quest, I
found it was very common to replacing the wheel bearing at around 70,000km.
My driver’s side actually went first and then several thousand miles later,
the passenger went. I think one culprit to this is the fact these Quest has
a history of warping rotors and shimmy on the steering. This can cause
premature stress on the bearings.

Where did you find the torque specs for the bolts etc.?
