Any advice on doing this at home please? Does the electronic handbrake need to be disabled?

Thx

Are you sure that it's the bearing and not tyre wear? The back end of the C6 is prone to uneven tyre wear and this causes the drone , if you like, similar to a duff bearing. Try swapping tyres around and see if it helps or makes a difference.

It's definitely the bearing
