BMW 2002 Wheel Bearing
The BMW 2002 Wheel Bearing is the important friction-reducing link that allows each wheel to rotate smoothly while withstanding the car's weight and stability. Housed within the wheel hub, each Wheel Bearing has a set of precisely machined steel balls or tapered rollers that roll between a hardened race, reducing drag so the tire assembly rolls freely and maintains a light steering feel. For the classic 2002 line, three hub styles have appeared over the years. The highly widespread is the sealed unit hub where the Wheel Bearing, hub, and sometimes ABS sensor arrive as one piece and are totally swapped when worn. Certain front installations require the steering knuckle to be removed so the integrated hub can be pressed in and out. However, the bearing portion itself remains non-serviceable. Earlier non-driven rear hubs may use opposed, replaceable tapered roller designs allowing the owners to renew just the Wheel Bearing elements inside the original hub. These variations have to do with BMW engineering priorities for simplicity and safety, and keeping a healthy Wheel Bearing allows ride quality, precision of handling, and overall safety for any BMW 2002 enthusiast.

BMW 2002 Wheel Bearing Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: How to replace the front wheel bearing and hub assembly on BMW 2002?A:Jack up the front of the car and remove the roadwheel. Disconnect the fluid line bracket from the suspension strut, unbolt the caliper, and support it to one side without disconnecting the hydraulic lines. Tap or twist off the dust cap, remove the split pin, and unscrew the castellated nut. Extract the thrust washer and carefully pull the hub assembly from the stub axle, catching the outer taper bearing. Use a suitable drift to drive out the oil seal and extract the inner taper roller bearing. If new bearings are to be installed, drive out the bearing tracks using a bearing puller or drift. Clean the interior of the hub and dust cap, then install the new bearing tracks, the inner taper roller bearing, and tap in a new oil seal. Pack wheel bearing grease into the inside of the hub until it fills the deeper recess but is no thicker than the bearing tracks. Press some grease into the bearing rollers and then reassemble by reversing the dismantling process. Adjust the bearings and refit the dust cap, ensuring it is no more than 1/3rd full with grease.
