Hopefully they will get done under parts warranty as it's been under 24 months since mine were done.

Not sure packing bearing with grease is overly helpful. That's only likely to hasten its demise.

SKF is the brand of the bearing. Supposed to be very good bearings. I use SKF on all the Porsches I restore. They were 80ish per side.RS6chris! wrote:993turbo wrote:I went for the SKF bearings... Hope they last..

Im still unsure what brand the OE audi bearings are.
I will do the job myself. Will change both of the fronts in the same go.

Re: C6 (any version) Clicking wheel bearing thread
I'd be surprised if the OE bearings weren't made by SKF, Timken or whoever anyway.

SKF and FAG are considered topnotch bearings. No idea what the OE audi bearings are, but I will find out when I do this job.
I read earlier in this thread audi dealers are ''repacking'' the bearings with grease. How one repack a sealed bearing with grease is beyond my comprehension.
