Hi all just had my mechanic fit new bottom swivel bearings on both front hubs wow what a difference!! No need to buy a full new hub from Renault! Saved me loads of money!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I had mine done last month. A local garage was recommended by a member on here and he saved me a fortune. I paid £45 for bearings and grease bolts (ebay) then the garage charged just £226 for fitting.
The top bearing is the needle bearinged point. The bottom/lower ones are ball bearing and very rarely fail (told by my mechanic).
These https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Renault-...915314&hash=item467470e789:g:zEUAAOSwjDZYmJLZ I bought the bearings and bolts together for £45
Thats the kiddys !! Yeah they are lower ones actually, my bad.me and the mechanic where looking at it the wrong way up haha. Yeah needle bearing are defo lower and ball bearings top. Sorry for confusion.
BK4520 is the bearing part number and can be had for less than those ones on ebay https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BK4520A-...668971?hash=item3f7b1144eb:g:fXsAAOSwUwFZ9vZF or INA ones https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BK4520A-...649198&hash=item41c34e6b83:g:XekAAOSwvflZO6Ra
