Title: Edition 30 Rear Wheel Bearing Size
Post by: j dog on January 31, 2013, 01:00:18 am

I have a 57 plate 5 door Edition 30. It's done 59000 miles and I'm getting an annoying humming noise from the rear nearside wheel. It occurs between 30 and 60 mph and goes away when I turn left! I'm pretty sure it's the bearing and after searching on here it seems to be a common wear and tear item on the MK5's.

My question is does anybody know which of these will fit my car?

Any help would be appreciated or if anyone has experience from these sellers.

Thanks

How did you get on with your wheel bearing size mate? I have the same car as you and also need to replace the rear wheel bearing but don't know which is the correct size for our vehicle. I have seen 30 and 32mm options.
