So, i have an 08 sentra 2.0 non-ABS and i want to change the passenger side bearing (i am 95% sure its the bearing, wheel is well balanced and at 30PSI making varialbe noise and vibration while drive and turning the wheel)

I am going to buy this:

I watched a couple videos and i think that assembly will do the work.

My question is : Are they any other bearings in this area of the wheel ? Could the problem be something else ?


nb: I dont know anything about cars. No my name is not rick and no i dont like 911 porsch (this is not my account too.)

quick way to make sure is to play musical chairs with the tires/wheels. See if it continues. Note that some vehicles have front/rear specific offsets, but you can swap the left for the right no problem.
Also, how bad is the noise? Every time I've had to deal with a wheel bearing it gave a constant noise, and it got louder as speed increased then just sort of stopped at around 50mph.

I suggest taking it to a mechanic if you don't know anything about cars. Its a pretty simple job, but there are lots of things to screw up with one missed detail.
You don't want a wheel falling off while you're driving. Its a pretty hairy situation.
