The front bearing is on its way out on the missus's car (have the loud droing noise above 35 and going round corners).

Not gonna have time to get quotes till next week but just wandering what i should be expecting and how long the job should take? Also probably avoiding stealers

I don't know much about the Fiesta, but from my experience of doing it on other cars, I'd say something like 40 quid for the part and an hour to change it?

Depends if it's got ABS or not really.
Front hub/wheel bearing on my Astra is £50 cause it doesn't have ABS, but if it did - it'd be about £60 I think.

As above, should take an hour or so to fit smile

I'm sure I paid £160 to have a rear one fitted on my old '97 1.25.

It was probably a complete rip off along with just about everything else from this particular well known chain frown

Put your full reg in to check, but for a basic 1.25 Zetec,

Budget bits,

With ABS £17.04

Without ABS £19.14



More expensive,

With ABS £31.80

Without ABS £33.54


About 1.5 to 2 hours work tops.
