Hi,

 

our drivers side bearing is making quite a racket and needs replacing. As I understand the bearing comes as part of a whole hub assembly. But when I input my reg number into gsf or eurocar parts I get 2 options. A 3 bolt and 4 bolt version.

 

The Yeti is a 61 plate 1.2tsi, does anyone know what is likely to be fitted?

 

Also can anyone explain the huge price differences from £35 at some admittedly shady looking websites to £150 at gsf etc?! Even for the same branded hub assembly!

 

Thanks,

Alex

From my experience with bearings, just get the oem one. Same as the one in use for the tiguan, common failing part after 70k kms.

I think its the 4 bolt one, but mine is the 1.8tsi, there may be differences

Depends on what front brakes are fitted.

Check the build code sticker near the spare tyre...

1ZA, 1ZE, 1LJ have 4 holes

1ZF has 3 holes

 

Recommend the oem one.
