Replacing the rear wheel bearing on a VAZ 2114

If there is a constant extraneous sound (hum) from the rear wheels when driving, you should pay attention to the condition of the wheel bearing. On the VAZ 2114, this part is quite durable and it happens that the bearing travels more than 200,000 km, but if it starts to howl, its replacement is required.

In order to replace it yourself, we need the following tool:

1. Vise for more convenience
2. Special puller with rotating jaws
3. Circlip pliers
4. Wood block
5. Hammer
6. Ratchet and crank
7. 7 and 30 mm heads

At one time I did a video review on this topic, but due to the fact that at that time I did not have all the necessary tools and a vice on hand, which are very useful when performing this repair, everything did not turn out quite as I wanted. But the essence of working in a garage environment can still be understood.

Chassis design

Front wheel bearing

Before you begin the replacement process itself, you need to see all the structural elements that need to be dismantled. Therefore, first you need to understand the structure of the front part of the suspension, or rather, look at the elements in section and determine the location of the bearing.

Many experts agree that on the VAZ 2109, like other domestic cars, the rear wheel bearing (RH) is a weak point. This is not due to the low quality of the products. It's all because of the condition of the roads.

Considering the condition of the road surface, as well as the need to have a car always ready for travel, replacing a faulty bearing should be done in a timely manner. Otherwise, the consequences of operating a car with a worn bearing could result in expensive repairs and an accident.

Causes of wheel bearing failure

Attention : if repair work is not carried out in a timely manner, the likelihood of an emergency on the road increases. As a rule, the use of a low-quality bearing leads to the fact that the wheel may jam during steering, or as a result of the disc being separated from the shaft.

It is also important to note that if the hub fails, it becomes very hot. As a result, the brake system fails, and therefore operation is disrupted. However, the work is never disrupted at the same time, unless there is a strong collision with another object. The car may hit a hole, a bump, or drive onto a curb. As a result, the VAZ 2114 may receive serious mechanical damage.

Destruction occurs gradually and the driver can often understand this by the presence of a specific sound when a specific body vibration appears. There may be small shocks, sometimes the car shakes.

There are several reasons why a malfunction may occur:

1. Constant driving on off-road or poor quality roads with a lot of uneven surfaces.
2. Transportation of large loads.
3. The car may constantly fall into mud or slush.
4. Some drivers begin to drive aggressively: they brake or accelerate sharply, or drift.

Depending on what cause is present, deformation of the main housing may occur over time, and sometimes the outer housing and bearing rim may crack. Often the lubricant dries out. Dirt, sand, and dust may get inside the rotating parts.

Sometimes there is a malfunction of the rollers and bearing balls. Often this happens not as a result of inaccurate driving, but from the quality of workmanship itself. Spare parts from domestic or European manufacturers last an order of magnitude longer than from Chinese ones. But they can also become unusable over time as a result of constant use of the car.

When a breakdown just begins to appear, it is almost impossible to recognize it in a timely manner. As a rule, for this purpose you need special diagnostic equipment, which is available in auto repair shops or official dealers. If a whistle, strong hum or crunching occurs, you have to provide it yourself or with professional help.

If the breakdown occurs on the front hub, then identifying the fault is much easier. It is enough to pick up a speed of 40-60 km/h and perform simple maneuvers. Most often, a specific hum appears. If the sound increases when turning to the right, this means that the left bearing has failed. The opposite situation occurs with the left side.

Wheel bearing selection

Since the modern market is constantly expanding, bearing models from domestic and foreign manufacturers can be found on sale.
Everything depends on a person’s material capabilities. However, it is recommended to pay attention to several important recommendations from experts:

1. You should not use analogues made in China. First of all, their quality is not high. As a rule, most buyers are seduced by affordable pricing policies. But such spare parts are designed for a short service life.
2. European models are considered to be among the highest quality and offer the longest service life. The price category in comparison with Chinese manufacturers is an order of magnitude higher. However, it is important to pay attention so that the client is not sold a Chinese counterfeit. Unfortunately, every year the market situation worsens, and it is difficult for non-professionals to identify a fake.
3. Domestic production. Manufacturers from Vologda and Samara deserve special attention. The cost of such spare parts is much lower, while the quality is higher than those made in China.

It doesn’t matter which bearing is purchased (front or rear), its dimensions are identical: 64*34*47mm.

But it is not recommended to buy bearings from an unknown manufacturer.

Some nuances and recommendations for selecting, purchasing and installing a rear wheel bearing:

Replacement parts and necessary tools

On a VAZ 2114, the wheel bearing is replaced using prepared tools and high-quality spare parts.

First you need to purchase the following components:

1. Front wheel bearing.
2. Front hub retaining rings.
3. Front hub (it is not recommended to purchase a used model). It is necessary in a situation where excessive wear or rotation is allowed in the driver's seat.

Before changing the front wheel bearing on a VAZ 2114, it is recommended to prepare the following set of tools in advance:

Most car owners try to independently study the instructions on how to change the front wheel bearing on a VAZ 2114, since when contacting official representatives, the cost can vary in the range of 4000-6000 rubles. When contacting private craftsmen, the price is reduced to 3,000 rubles. By deciding to find out how to change the front wheel bearing on a VAZ 2114, each owner can save money on paying for technicians. By following the instructions consistently, any car enthusiast will not have any difficulties. In addition, the procedure does not take much time.

Instructions for replacing the rear wheel bearing on a VAZ 2114 with your own hands

The rear wheel bearing on the VAZ 2114 (2110, 2111, 2112, 2115), as stated by the manufacturer, is changed every 100,000 km.
This is due to external influences on the bearing: impact axial and radial loads, dirt, moisture, damage to rolling elements, raceways. Replacing the rear wheel bearing of a VAZ 2114 is not a difficult type of repair that even a novice motorist can handle with his own hands. The wheel bearing assembly of the “fourteenth” is not complicated in design, so removing and installing a new bearing will not be difficult.

The article examines in detail the issue of replacing and diagnosing the rear wheel bearing, as well as providing tips and recommendations for repairs, and talks about the features of choosing a new product.

How to change a bearing yourself

Before starting work, you should carefully study all its stages:

We jack up the car from the side of the faulty bearing, remove the wheel and, having access to the lock nut of the outer CV joint, unscrew it using a 30 mm socket. It is worth considering that when subjected to high loads, the nut can be heavily tightened; in this case, the wheel is put in place, the car is released from the jack, after which we engage first or second gear in the gearbox and with great force and an elongated wrench, it can be torn off.

How to check

Before you begin replacing the front or rear bearing of your hub, we recommend that you conduct a simple check of the functionality of this unit. This will allow you to accurately determine the culprit of the malfunction and verify the real need to replace the elements.

There are two verification methods, each of which has its own nuances.

Verification method

What to do

After a long ride, touch the area of ​​the wheel where the noise is coming from.

If the area is hot compared to the other side, the bearing needs to be replaced
