Volkswagen Jetta Wheel Bearing

The Volkswagen Jetta Wheel Bearing provides the front and rear wheels with the low friction support that they require to spin reliably and ensure that steering remains accurate and the ride is silent. This little assembly of steel balls or tapered rollers is buried within the hub of the wheel to allow the tire and rim to rotate with minimum drag and vibration, a task extremely important to both performance and safety. The Wheel Bearing assembly is very tight and is sealed against contaminants to ensure that moisture or grit does not result in grinding or looseness. The common type of modern Volkswagen model is based upon a sealed unit hub where the bearing is fused with the mount and is often installed with the ABS sensor, so the complete assembly is always replaced as soon as wear is detected. Even some front-wheel-drive designs employed by Volkswagen in the Jetta have placed this directly in a steering knuckle and thus require it to be removed to allow the hub and bearing to be pressed open before being reassembled, sacrificing easy access to a secure press fit. Both driven and non-driven axles may be of opposed, replaceable tapered roller design, allowing the owner to replace the rollers and races individually rather than replacing the entire cartridge. The main difference between these styles is their serviceability, with sealed units favoring easy replacement and tapered rollers offering the ability to replace a single component. All Volkswagen Jettas rely on a healthy Wheel Bearing, irrespective of their generation, so that the car can generate less heat, create less friction, and allow the suspension to give drivers the calm and predictable feeling they expect from the car.

Choose OEM Wheel Bearing for superior quality and long-lasting durability. They match the Volkswagen's factory specifications exactly and pass strict quality control.
