Thank you so much. Please people be prepared these wheel bearing on this car can be a nightmare. Took me 3 hours to swap for a new one. I really appreciate people who put videos on YouTube thank you

shared a link to bug club fb page, this channel is gold for the c1/107/108/aygo  owners

Thanks for making this video mate, it was very helpful for me changing one of these. Couple tricks I used that you didn't here are to unbolt the shock at the bottom to have more direct access, and after cracking each of the bolts loose winding them out a short distance and giving them each a few wacks with an hammer to shock some of the rust free. That in combination with the wheel bolt trick and plenty of penetrating fluid applied the day before and while under tension with the wheel bolt got it moving with relative ease. Managed to swap the bearing without touching the brake shoes.

I love your c1/107/108/aygo repair videos.

Genius, in another video you hit the bearing with a hammer, I try for 3 hrs and it didn't move at all, but after I saw this other way, it was so easy that I change both sides, thanks a lot.

This is a great video. I need to replace mine and this is a big help. Thanks for the guide!

Thanks for the video ! iv just had my front left wheel bearing replace it was ceesed . Nice to see you go through it all.

Excellent job!

Great job.

Well I've finally done it on my own 107. Have to say thats a lot Anton for the videos, they were definitely useful and well made. Especially useful was that breakshoe video which was a much needed god send. I kind of wish i'd been able to make a video myself to cover my own experience, but I'll add a few pointers on here that may be of use.

So I had a really rusty hub and really rusty wheel itself at the back meaning I had to use a sledge hammer and blow torch just to get the bloody wheel off itself. The front plate came off surprisingly easy, but the hub was ridiculously melted on. I had to take off the brake shoes and created a make shift part out of a socket and a bolt to do a similar thing. It was hard to get it just right. What I didn't anticipate though was not being able to remove the bolts from the old hub properly when they went in far enough. It's also hard without an electric tool as well because the hub spins freely so you can't get that torque. I managed to crack one side and then the other side with pressure, then used the sledge hammer to completely knock it off. The rust was severe. I even got some of that Rost Off spray.

I had (not so much) fun taking apart the brake shoes and putting it back together only to realise that they didnt work at all. Lucky after some closer inspection I noticed that the horizontal bar with the adjuster on it hadn't been correctly seated in the brake shoe itself and when it was pushed to one side, it was simply sliding over the brake and not pushing it so nothing was happening. Managed to fix that and now the car sounds completely silent in comparison. I've only had the car just over a month and it was like this when I bought it so I've never had it so quiet.

Teşekkürler 🙏

You could have bolted a wheel the opposite way around and smacked it from behind with a sledge mate. It’s what I did and worked a charm

Just watched your aygo gearbox job was a bit of a bugger lifting the gearbox good little cars the aygos c1 107

Great Video again Aanton. Allways easy to understand. Have you ever done front wishbone ?

Really enjoyed the video. My Toyota Yaris started to make a noise late last year. I thought at first the exhaust was starting to blow. The had only covered 38,000 miles. My local Toyota dealer diagnosed a rear wheel bearing problem. Repaired under warranty. Unfortunately they changed the wrong side first go. I think hitting so many potholes in the road wore the bearing out early.

Great content 👍

I’ve just spent probably 10 hours over 2 days trying to get the rear wheel off to change the bearing. It won’t move. Sledge hammer. WD40 LOTS.

Today I gave up and thought I’d go in from the back and undo the hub bolts, push the hub out and wheel together. Had to grind a slot in the ABS sensor bolt to remove it. Hub bolts out, whack it with large hammer, nope it wasn’t budging.

Then i spotted a bit of rust on the axle where the shock joins it. After some prodding and scraping, some holes appeared - so much so that I don’t think it’ll pass the next MOT.

Gave up at that point and put it back together. Anyone want a cheap 107? 😁

Been there, done that on an aygo. Heat and all of that. I don't want to do it soon.

I saw a forum post about turning off the seatbelt reminder chime. Could make a good video

Alright ant. The last 1 I did I had to remove the shoes and air chisel it off. Bloody things

What size wheel and tyres are on the car?
