This means the bearing has a built-in ring with magnetic poles that rotates with the wheel. An ABS sensor reads these poles to determine wheel speed, which is essential for ABS and ESP systems.

Professional installation is strongly recommended. Wheel bearings require specific tools and torque settings for proper seating and function. Incorrect installation can lead to premature failure or safety issues.

The outer diameter of this Febi Bilstein Wheel Bearing Kit is 117 mm.

What is the inner diameter?

The inner diameter of the bearing is 30 mm.

Is this bearing suitable for the front or rear axle?

This specific kit (MPN: 12370) is designed for the rear axle placement.

How do I confirm if this is the correct part for my car?

You must verify compatibility with your vehicle's make, model, and year using your car's service manual or by consulting an automotive parts specialist. Cross-reference the MPN (12370) with your vehicle's requirements.

What is the bolt hole circle diameter?

What is the weight of the kit?

Troubleshooting

Noise from rear wheel after installation

Ensure the bearing was seated correctly and torqued to manufacturer specifications. Check for any foreign debris trapped during installation. Verify ABS sensor ring functionality.

ABS or ESP warning light remains on

Confirm the magnetic sensor ring was properly installed and is not damaged. Check the wiring harness connection to the ABS sensor. Scan for specific fault codes using diagnostic equipment.

Wheel feels loose or has play

Re-check the bearing nut torque. Ensure the bearing is fully seated in the hub or axle housing. Inspect for damage to the bearing races or the hub/axle itself.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This wheel bearing kit requires professional installation. Due to the critical nature of wheel bearing and ABS sensor function, it is strongly recommended to have a qualified mechanic perform the installation. The kit typically includes the bearing and potentially other necessary components, but often does not come with fitting instructions.

Compatibility: Before purchasing, it is crucial to verify compatibility with your specific vehicle make, model, and year. Variations in axle and bearing specifications can occur. Consult your vehicle's service manual or a parts specialist to confirm that part number 12370 is the correct fitment for your rear axle.

Care: Wheel bearings are largely maintenance-free once installed. However, regular checks for unusual noises or handling changes during vehicle inspections are advised. Avoid high-pressure washing directly at the bearing area, as this can force contaminants past seals. Ensure any brake or suspension work performed near the wheel bearing does not compromise its seals or mounting.
