Wheel Bearings

[Lyle]

Okay po ba yung Koyo brand ng wheel bearings as replacement sa Toyota OEM?

May umuugong na po kasi sa likod kapag mabilis yung takbo. I was also informed na talamak yung counterfeit wheel bearings sa market. Is there anyway to determine genuine from counterfeit Koyo wheel bearings?

Naginquire sa isang online seller na Koyo brand, he priced it at around php1100 for the front and Php3850 for the rear since it's a wheel hub bearing with ABS sensor so I suppose ito nagpamahal sa kanya aside sa hindi siya pede irepack. This is for 2nd gen vios.

Reasonable na po ba yung naging pricing? If ever may alam kayo reputable store na nabibilhan at naginstall?

[jodski]

Yes Koyo is a good replacement...

Average lang yung price nya... can't remember yung sa harap but yung bearing sa likod talaga for sedans starts at 3,200 depends sa brand and kung saan mo binili.

antay na lang tayo ng ibang suggestions sa fellow tsikoteers regarding sa ibang tanong mo

the front wheel bearing/hub assembly are replaced as a set and are not supposed to be repacked. the bearings usually have a lifespan of 100,000 km. again, usually, depending on the condition of the road where it is always driven. the rear bearings however, are two separate tapered roller bearings, one on the inboard side is larger than the outboard side (for toyota) these can be cleaned, repacked and reinstalled if after thorough inspection is not brinnelled, not galled, not overheated, not damaged or worn out. in most cases, it is torqued to about 100 foot pounds of torque, backed off and retightened with a pair of slip joint pliers to snug it. it should not be too tight since it gets warm or hot during use and will expand causing it to bind. if the bearings are too tight and the rolling resistance is increased, the fuel economy also suffers. there is a bearing store in evangelista street that carries a wide range of sizes and applications of bearings- the manila bearing center

Koyo is actually an OEM manufacturer as well. We bought Koyo rear wheel bearing for our Gen2 Vios w/ ABS also (from Toyorama in Banawe) and it's very good when i checked out the part. Can't remember the price anymore though.

I see, medyo mahirap pala kapag wala ka talagang alam sa pagbili ng bearings. Sige sir, will take note of this one. Thanks!

Thank you for this one, very informative sir. So does this mean that my current wheel bearings should not be necessarily replaced for now and should be inspected first at a reputable shop?

The best wheel bearings that I used is timken... You can buy it at any bearing centers... Compare to NGK or any Japanese made bearings its 3-4 times more durable...

I have not heard a NGK bearing?
As far as I know Japanese made bearings are NSK, NTN, Nachi, Koyo...etc. Saan po ba gawa ang timken?

timken is manufactured worldwide but the headquarters is in the u.s..


fag bearings is another high quality bearing brand that is made in germany. haven't heard of a knock off of fag bearings.

Was able to buy a 2nd hand OEM rear wheel hub bearings. But it seems like walang ABS sensor tong nabili ko. MY vios is a 1.5G pa naman. Possible po ba magamit pa ito? Or pede ba ilipat yung abs sensor nung lumang hub bearing dito sa bago?

[lowslowbenz]

How much was the price difference between brand new and surplus?

How sure are you that the second hand parts you bought would be in a "better" condition than your old parts?

Is it worth the "hassle"?

I think you're just throwing away good money on mechanic labor (not to mention your time) ... re: baklas, kabit, baklas ulit, kabit ulit. Get my drift?

Buy brand new parts boss, the Vios is a pretty straight forward and cheap car to maintain.

My 2 cents worth.

[dr. d]

i wouldn't use surplus bearings, either. .. don't know how the previous user, used them.. baka nag-overheat.. tapos lininis lang...

okay din ang NGK, normally NGK and FAG, NTN, Koyo, mga oem bearing ng malalaking motor at ibang automotive.

Noticed a humming sound when cruising above 60kph. Had the casa boys road test my 1.3 Vios, suspected worn out wheel bearing daw.

Buti covered pa ng warranty, nagtataka lang ako baket ambilis naman magka problema. 15K odo pa lang, tas smooth road naman ang daily route.

Kung madalas ka na mabilis then sasagasa ka sa potholes or yung maliliit na speed bumps na hindi maiwasan sa highway thats one cause na bumigay wheel bearing.

Okay yun sir kilalang brand.
