Front Wheel Bearing - where to get?

Post by karl » Wed Jun 17, 2009 1:08 pm

Can anyone recommend the best place to obtain a front wheel bearing kit for the RS4 B7 without having to pay Stealer prices?

I've seen them on fleabay for our car. Otherwise try TPS (VAG Trade Parts Specialists) or Europarts. Mind I had a front one crack and it was replaced with suspension arm under warranty.

What are the symptoms that would indicate a front wheel bearing cracked? Metallic grinding noise?
