Hi all
My front wheel bearings gone in my gt tdi 140
1 off the bearing housing bolts has rounded out so I need to change the whole hub
So looking at second hand ones on eBay
The question is ...
Will any hub fit any mk5 golf ??? Or more to the point will a gti hub fit my 2.0 tdi ??
Please help :thinking: Thanks.

Someone will hopefully confirm, but I think the GTI and 2.0 TDI have the same front hub, in that they will mount onto the suspension leg correctly.
The 1.9 TDI had a smaller hub, smaller diameter suspension leg, I think.
The only difference to lookout for is the bearing have 3 or 4 mounting bolts, but if you're buying a complete hub, that won't really matter.
Do a bit of googling, but I think you'll be ok with GTI hubs.

its all down to the shock size 50 or 55mm i think is the diameter

Iv looked on line and can't find anything
Going to try to get the rounded off bolt out "somehow" and just buy the bearing as seems to much hassle haha

A PD140 has the same size hubs as the GTI. You can fit any 55 mm hub that you like for Golf mk5, Golf mk6 and corresponding Audi, Seat and Skoda models.
