ASheffielder Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 as the title suggests, I fear the front passenger side bearing on my trusty berlingo needs replacing and the mot is due next week.. anyone know the cost of gettting a new one fitted? thanks Posted from Sheffieldforum.co.uk App for Android Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megalithic Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 A friend just did me one, i gave him £30 which i thought was fair as i'd had the same quote on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkey104 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 I paid a tender for two sets on my Landrover and did it myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alchresearch Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Autodata times the job of replacing a bearing at two hours. So, guessing an average cost of £40 per hour plus the cost of the bearing. If you PM me the last 8 digits of your chassis number, or tell me the exact year, model, engine size and variation of your vehicle I can get you the Citroen dealer price.

truman Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Don't know how relevant it is but just had both rear bearings done on a Focus yesterday..£65 +VAT..that's parts and labour.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alchresearch Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Autodata says 1 hour 10 minutes for a Focus rear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truman Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Autodata says 1 hour 10 minutes for a Focus rear. It was an independent garage that I use quite a bit..he only charges £35 an hour..on the invoice (in front of me) he's charged an hour's labour and £29 for the bearings..I'd have done it myself but,unlike the bearings in my Landy, they have to be pressed in and out....and I don't have a press..

smithy266 Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 There's a few Landies in this thread! I took my Landie to B&S at Sheepbridge, seals and bearings on one side was only about £30 to fit iirc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did the front discs and pads as well....what an enjoyable job.. broke my rarchet on the bloomin' things..had to buy a bigger (1/2" drive) set..are B&S worth a visit?

carosio Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 And if they were rusted in as they were on my Mk3 Astra, you'd need a mandrel backed up by a 12lb sledge hammer, same with the brake discs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
