Rear wheel bearing

[JasonBourne]

hi, my msp sound like the rear wheel bearing is bad, the question is if i have to change the wheel bearing or the whole thing.

By "the whole thing" Do you mean the whole hub and everything? If so, no, you just need to replace the wheel bearing. I've never done it on this car, but on some cars you need special tools to replace wheel bearings... the ol' hammer and large socket method of removing the old one and pressing the new one isn't always sufficient. lol

yes i mean the whole hub, but i only need the wheel bearing, right?

My bad, it looks like the rear wheel has the bearing integrated into the hub assembly, and the whole hub is replaced together.

i just want to affirm that, i heard that the whole hub was to be replace.
