Xsara picasso front wheel bearings

Unread post by thebrasso »

Hi there.
I noticed the other day, that although there is no play the old girl is rumbling from the front wheels very slightly. I'm not going to sort it until next spring, but I noticed ECP sell front hubs complete with bearings. Changing the hubs would eliminate the need to press the old ones out (I think) and mage this doable on the driveway..

Would I be correct in thinking this? And has anybody on here gone down this route.?

I look forward to your reply in advance

Avoid ECP like the plague! Although some people have had good results, others have not (and ECP have earned the nickname Euro Crap Parts).

I wouldnt go near ECP either.
Could you post a link to the complete hub with bearing though? The only one i can see for the front is just the flange which has no bearing in it?
