:: ECS Tuning :: C5 Allroad Vaico Front Wheel Bearing Kits
Located in the wheel hub, brake drum, or rotor itself, wheel bearings support the full weight of the vehicle while allowing the wheels to rotate smoothly within a steel enclosure.
Dysfunctional bearings are simply the result of the rigors of daily driving, and should be replaced at the first sign of failure.
Worn bearing symptoms range from loud noises emanating from the wheel hubs to general rough ride characteristics.
ECS offers Vaico individual Front Wheel Bearings and Wheel Bearing Kits, along with the fantastic Schwaben 24-piece Wheel Bearing Service Kit.

What tools are needed to service the bearings? Do you need a blind bearing puller? Or can they be removed with a curved/hook pry-bar? What is needed to press them back in? Put them in the freezer and then use a socket on the outside edge to knock them back in? Please forgive my ignorance. I'm a motorcyce guy that occasionally manages to fix car stuff.
I'm getting some decent chatter under hard braking. Kinda looks like the rotors might be in not-so-good shape. I also heard the allroad rotors for some reason are prone to warping.
