Rear wheel bearing replacement cost? Any ideas

[ac88]

Hi how much does it roughly cost to get your rear bearings replaced at a local garage? its for the rear wheels of a 53 clio 1.2.

Also does anybody know any trusty garages around the wolverhampton area wher i could get the job done, thanks!

not a hard job mate, garage may well charge £60 - 70 bearing will be about £12 best of asking a mechanic to do it on the fiddle tbh

Thanks for the promt reply mate, yea i heard the rears are much easier and so forth cheaper to replace. Some one told me to buy the bearings separately and take them to a garage as it works out cheaper. I dont think it would be that much cheaper tho would it? .....

umm take the hub off and take that to the garage with bearings you bought. i did that and the garage didnt even charge me
