How to remove and install the rear wheel bearing on a BMW 328i?

Remove the rear hub. Remove the hub bearing retaining snap ring from the trailing arm. Tap the hub bearing out from the hub carrier using a hammer and suitable punch. Thoroughly clean the hub carrier bore, removing all traces of dirt and grease, and polish away any burrs or raised edges which might hinder reassembly. Replace the snap-ring if there is any doubt about its condition. On reassembly, apply a light film of clean engine oil to the bearing outer race to aid installation. Place the bearing in the hub carrier and tap it fully into position, ensuring that it enters the carrier squarely, using a suitable tubular spacer which bears only on the bearing outer race. Secure the bearing in position with the snap-ring, making sure it is correctly positioned in the hub carrier groove. Install the rear hub.

BMW 328i Wheel Bearing

The BMW 328i Wheel Bearing allows each wheel to rotate with as little friction as possible so that the car feels stable, quiet and efficient at any speed. Inside the hub, there are rows of steel balls or tapered rollers that run along a hardened race, given that the Wheel Bearing bears both radial and thrust loads, guards the precision of steering during use and reduces energy loss. Through the years, the 328i has seen three major styles of hubs. Many modern 328i models are based on a sealed unit combining hub and Wheel Bearing, and even the ABS sensor, so changing it is fast but not possible to disassemble. Some front assemblies on earlier compared models of BMW need the steering knuckle to be removed so the hub and Wheel Bearing can be pushed apart and then assembled again, a design that still protects alignment but permits reuse of the components. Non-driven rear positions have featured opposed tapered roller sets where each Wheel Bearing can be serviced individually, prized for their strength under cornering. In everyday driving, BMW owners love this design flexibility, and whichever layout is fitted, all BMW 328i depend on healthy bearings for safe handling and long tire life.
