    If you dont have impact gun, you could tighter center nut by putting brakes on first, then screw few lug nuts in and ask somebody to press brakes, while you tighten center nut

    Thx for this updated X5 front wheel bearing video. Like you said, you made that e70 change a lot harder than it had to be...but you were master here! I just asked on the e70 comments whether your $80 pair hubs had done ok? Like you, the noise I had wasn't worth $400 hubs...but how long did the your $80 set last ? (Incidentally, I paid 85 for my hubs...which also came with new axle nuts AND hub attachment bolts! (Maxrodspeeds (or close to that) Chinese brand. They came quickly , packaged well, and had nice marketing inserts...with pictures of the factory and HQ office building "3 million customers served". Hoping I got a lucky find.

    Very excellent video! Thank you. But my car has a Rear wheel bearing gone out. Apparently the job is not the same and more difficult. I've looked everywhere on the web and there's no such thing as a REAR wheel bearing and hub assembly already pressed before hand. So I'm guessing........UG! lol.

    I cross threaded a lug bolt so essentially the wheel is secured by only 4 bolts instead of five. X5 drives fine but for piece of mind I'd like it to be right. With your thorough vid I can get it done. Thank you for your contribution. Peace

    Thanks for the video, it is very informative. I have a 3.0 f15 and noise/vibration is coming from my front driver side wheel and it is due to uneven wear on the inner side of the tire. I was wondering do you know if there is camber adjustment on the front wheels since i cant find any info in the service manual on it? I have 72k miles on my bmw. Thanks in advance.

    • @weslenkewich7359
      @weslenkewich7359 3 года назад

      So I found out there is two different bolts used for holding the bearing in. You need either a triple square 16mm bit or a T60. My 2016 X5 was the T60. Torque to 88 ft-lbs for the bearing bolts. The torque spec for the axel nut is 310 ft-lb. Hope this helps anyone that has a 2016 X5.

  • @oldjarhead1125
    @oldjarhead1125 4 года назад

    Thanks for the video on the X5. How many miles on it that required a new wheel bearing? I just did a transfer case fluid change on our F15 X5 (without dropping the support as shown in NEWTIS). How about doing a transmission drain & fill for us (me) and a front differential drain & fill. Newtis makes/shows it more complicated than or X3's. Also, be sure to check the (2) front firewall cavities for debris that may clog the drains. Mine got clogged & filled up & caused water in front passenger side foot well.

    • @VehicularDIY

  • @ytromu
    @ytromu 4 года назад

    How did you measure the tightening torque given that you used an impact gun? I have the same Milwaukee gun and am concerned with over tightening since it delivers up to 1000 ft./lbs. of fastening torque.

    • @VehicularDIY
      @VehicularDIY  4 года назад

      You'd need an impact bar to set an exact torque via impact.

      Try to make sure you keep the head of the ratchet dead straight in relation to the bolt and try to apply pressure towards the bolt as you turn the ratchet.

    For symptoms of diagnosis did the car by chance make this swooshing/rotational noise at high speeds by chance? I have this super loud rotational noise that happens every time I go above 70mph. Checked for rocks in heat shield and nothing, I cant figure out if its my Diff or a bad wheel bearing!!! Shit...might even be the driveshaft, no know can figure this out. I even took it to a dealer for a ppi to find the problem and they couldn't even find it!! Best way i could explain the noise is a Rotational noise once i hit 70mph so it has to be an axle, diff, driveshaft, ect. but no one can figure it out, SO ANNOYING

    Contrary to what the notes say above, these instructions DO NOT pertain to to sDrive X5s...only xDrive. The wheel bearing is completely different. There are no splines or axel nut visible from the front.
