2008 LR2 Rear Wheel Bearing Replacement
 

Hi. Has anyone attempted to replace the rear wheel bearing in the '08 LR2?
Not sure what the procedure is to get the hub off.
Removed the rotor etc. hub is wobbly. Can I sue a gear puller and push on the drive axle?

Hi. I would be interested in knowing also. 2008 LR2 with 104,000 getting loud right side. Since I'm in there, do I do both sides? Just started to look into the feasibility of me doing the work or the shop. Thanks! If I find any answers outside of here I will share. Getting back on our feet financially; had disabling health problems and job down-sizing...so really do not want to pay for shop overhead if do not have to.

This is a very difficult job to complete. You'll need a quality shop press, 15 ton. You will need to remove the complete wheel knuckle, remove the wheel hub from the bearing, press the old bearing out, press in the new into the knuckle, and then reinstall the knuckle. Then alignment

what if dif service LBT00342
 

BritishautoworksSD - Pinion Bearing Spacer: Technical Service Bulletins
Drivetrain - Rear Differential Service Repair Info. No: LTB00342. What if the symptom/sound that I'm hearing, thinking is the bad wheel bearing, is actually the more popular failure of the pinion bearing as noted above. Could a somewhat intelligent, experienced mechanic-me, do this job? Complaints I have read about are noises from the right axle side, whereas my job sounds like the left side-idk until it is opened up. Thank you.

Not sure if you still need help but see my post here

2008 lr2
 

I just got 4 new tires and replace my bearings and service the differential, as soon as i had the differential serviced.


The transmission fault traccion reduced
dsc off
and terrain responce system faulty light came on,
y replaced the battery and the alternator and nothing the same message apears each time y start the car

I believe, from what I've read, there is a somewhat fragile wire that goes to the differential that gets broken and causes the issue.

I just rebuild the rear differential with the haldex unit here at my shop. I was able to do it for a good customer of mine.
Im located in Aldine TX near the Bush Intercontinental. If I can help..I will. I love Land Rovers.
