Hi Had my van for about six weeks now and done a couple of trips so far ! No major issues yet !! Just got back from doing approx 300 miles on way home noticed a noise which im 99% certain is front wheel bearings (had it before on another car) so im planning on replacing both. Been looking on ebay jk etc etc just wondering which brand is best? Dont want to fit crap !!!
As always thanks in advance !!!
forgot to say its a later model if that makes any difference !!

Re: Front wheel bearing
Wise decision I can't remember the number of cheap bearings I fitted before I got them from Brickwerks.

Re: Front wheel bearing
Thanks for the advice brickwerks it is then !!
I'm new to the Vw world and there seems to be a lot of complaints about sub standard parts ! So till I get more experience this may be the first of many such questions!!
But hopefully not to many !!!!

The thing with Brickwerks is they have a garage fitting the parts they sell so they don't sell crap because they understand the difference between good and bad quality.

unfortunately closed to new customers, that says something about supply and demand and why you don't easily see a link to it on the webshop.
