the bellows kit must fit. i tried it for my 99er and realised that Saab had a different shape. used an original, cut it and glued it together... worked nice and easy
Nice job. I am preparing for similar job. I want to replace the brakes too (calipers, discs and pads. I replaced brakes 3 times already and every time after longer drive on motorway my right wheel would wobble during breaking. I always thought it is to do with the disc. Now I know that it must be the hub bearing.
I just did this job on my 2002 S80. I just wacked the old hubs/bearings with a heavy hammer and they all came out like that, no press, no special tool needed. Yes I am in countries with snow and salt: Switzerland and The Netherlands and Northern France. I guess the XC70 is different than the S80.
I am from Sweden and have worked a lot on volvos thru the years. You have the old fitting on your s80, its bolted with 4 bolts, its the same on older xc70. Its much easier to change. On this newer xc70 and most newer volvos, you need to press the bearing in place. On xc70 they changed the fitting in 2008, if I’m not mistaken. 😊👍
The bearing doesn't look fully pressed in as you can still see the outer bearing race protruding out of the hub carrier. Is the metal back collar fouling against the inner race of the bearing when you thought it was fully driven in?
I have ABS sensor issues and I have noticed you have same sensor what part give speed readings? is it bearing? as sensor is slim and takes reading seemingly from side not the bottom
Having trouble with leveraging down the lower control arm ball joint so it releases. Tried a long pry bar but it only slightly moves up and down inside the compression fitting. Any tips?
@@hanssgarage1886 Thank you for the reply. Actually trying to replace the torn CV boot on the driver front side, which is why I need to get the lower ball joint out so I can then remove the CV shaft. May just have to admit defeat and take it to a shop.
How are the bearing going? I used a cheap bearing and regretted it within a year. Only use genuine named brands like Fag, or you will be doing this job again within 2 years.
Totally agree, the way he pressed the bearing in the hub, he definetely damaged it a little bit, so the bearings lifetime is shortened, but I saw a tool (a plate like from two pieces) that should be installed on bearing to not damage it.
Not OP, and I realized you posted this 4 months ago, but I believe these are labeled "Gen 2 wheel hub bearing unit tool set for 78/82mm" or some similar wording. Gen 2 and 82mm were the keywords to find the set I needed, and (should) be appropriate for any gen-2 style press in hubs on the P3 platform volvos. Not sure why he struggled with it in this video, but you can pick up a set for $169+. YMMV, I felt it was reasonable to buy at that price since we have two P3 platform volvos I exclusively maintain (Edited for redundancy)

Great video, in the past when ive done them its sometimes cost effective to just buy a new knuckle too rather then mess around
Well done! Persistence goes a long way when dealing with wheel bearings.

I did it on my S80 3.2 with the same tool. Very good video and nice work

Thanks. I should also replace pads. In my V70 I had that wobble issue but dics replacement helped. I hope your hub bearing project goes smoothly.👍
Fantastic video great work im researching because mine are currently failing and noisy too

@@samuelgustavsson1483 thanks, that explains it, it's different design. The rears on my 2001 C70 were even easier, just one large nut to undo ...

I did notes that too, it wasn't press all way in
What’s the preseure on your bearing press 6T 10T or bigger
Who makes these bearings for volvo xc70 p3? FAG or SKF?
Thank you very much you were very helpful
Nice job.
How was the quality of the "Made in China " bearings?
I have ABS sensor issues and I have noticed you have same sensor what part give speed readings? is it bearing? as sensor is slim and takes reading seemingly from side not the bottom
What would you say is an acceptable time to perform this job with a hydraulic press available?
when did you put the axle back into the bearing/knuckle
Awesome video! What size tool did you use in your press?
Nice job.!! How many tons is your press? I have to do the same job on my xc60. same bearings from what i know of.
It took me about 8 tonns.
Looks like you removed the ABS sensor from the knuckle. Was that required or were you being extra cautious?
Having trouble with leveraging down the lower control arm ball joint so it releases. Tried a long pry bar but it only slightly moves up and down inside the compression fitting. Any tips?
I destroyed the CV boot last time.😅 It can be very tricky. I have used also long bar. Sorry, no special tips. More WD40 and longer bar.😉

@@easy_two I have also video about CV boot replacement. I used over the joint method this time. But still you have to get the shaft out from the hub.😅
What ton press do you have as I need to buy one

@@thejoyoffix4720 It’s wise to use good bearings. Didn’t have problem with these.👍
I would have to say this is how not to do it . Certainly made me laugh

@@Bumbazaurs That kit has a lip around it and it will sit on the outer bearing so as not to damage it.
Great YT! What is the tool called?
What year is the Volvo?
This is 2011.
What year car?
It was 2012 if I remember right. I don’t have it anymore.
@@hanssgarage1886 THANKS
Could you put a link to where I can find the tool?
