Hi folks,

has anybody changed the rear wheels bearings on an 2000 V5 Golf.

Does the bearing require a mechanical press to remove/ fit or can it be fitted by using a socket the same size as the bearing outer race and tapped in???

What size is the retaining nut and is it reusable??

Any help would be gratefully appreciated as we will be attempting to this tomorrow at work (no haynes manual) and its on a friends car. :1zhelp:

Regards Panzerdriver.
