Hi all

I have noisy wheel bearing at the rear and am told that on my 05 Daihatsu Charade 1.0SL (with ABS), I need to buy the whole hub which from Daihatsu which is £234+Vat - and I need both sides. This is close to writing the car off.

Can anyone advise whether this is definitely the case, or can the bearings be pressed out and replaced with the existing hubs? If not - anywhere I may get hubs cheaper - or - would salvage parts be an option?

Please help - I love the little beast and don't want to have to scrap it!!
Thanks in advance
Martin
