2012 S60 Rear Brake Wheel Bearing Hub

Post by cuhfs »

All - does anyone have a write-up / tutorial for replacing the rear wheel bearing hub on a 2012 S60. I have a clicking noise and am making the leap that with 157,000 miles it is likely a wheel bearing. Any help and tips is appreciated.

Job done. This is a FWD so no rear axle to deal with. Removed caliper and rotor... then its 4 bolts so you need T50 or T55 (I dont recall), unplug speed sensor. R&R. I used wobble extensions to get to the Torx bolts. All bolts were very hard to break open. Maybe next time I'll let'em soak in penetrating oil overnight. Similar to the older Volvos except for the bolts were Torx and the electric caliper.
