How to remove and install a rear Wheel Hub assembly on BMW 325i?

The hub assembly should not be removed unless it, or the hub bearing, is to be replaced. The hub is a press-fit in the bearing inner race, and removal of the hub will damage the bearings. If the hub is to be removed, be prepared to replace the hub bearing at the same time. A long bolt or length of threaded bar and suitable washers will be required for this procedure. Removal: Remove the relevant driveaxle. Remove the brake disc. Bolt a slide hammer to the hub surface, and use the hammer to draw the hub out from the bearing. If the bearing inner race stays attached to the hub, a puller will be required to draw it off. With the hub removed, replace the bearing. Installation: Apply a smear of oil to the hub surface, and position it in the bearing inner race. Draw the hub into position using a long bolt or length of threaded rod and two nuts. Fit a large washer to either end of the bolt, so the inner one bears against the bearing inner race, and the outer one against the hub. Slowly tighten the nut(s) until the hub is pulled fully into position. Note: Do not be tempted to knock the hub into position with a hammer and drift, as this will almost certainly damage the bearing. Remove the bolt/threaded rod and washers (as applicable), and check that the hub bearing rotates smoothly and easily. Install the brake disc. Install the driveaxle.

BMW 325i Wheel Hub

The vehicle's steering and safety are confident and dependable as a car Wheel Hub secures a wheel to the vehicle but allows it to rotate freely. In each BMW 325i model year, the Wheel Hub, which is situated between the drive axle and brake rotor, contains bearings that cut the friction so that the wheels rotate freely. The use of three primary styles is evident. Early non-driven rear positions utilized separate tapered roller bearings, supported in a serviceable Wheel Hub, allowing owners to swap bearings without changing the mount. The later models feature an integral unit bearing style, which is a sealed Wheel Hub that presses together the hub, bearing, studs, and often the ABS sensor. This assembly is readily installed as a single unit and also excludes contaminants from entering the bearings. In some front-drive layouts, regardless of their rarity on a 325i, the steering knuckle has to be removed before the unit can be pressed out and in, demonstrating the tighter packaging of modern designs. The adaptations made to the bolt pattern of the BMW remain fixed as the model proceeds through various generations. The evolution of this Wheel Hub illustrates the balance that this brand obtains between strength and easy service. As a result, BMW drivers are now noticing quieter running, and BMW reliability testing confirms the improvement, ensuring each 325i stays smooth and safe on the road.
