OK, so I have a bearing making some noise actually, quite a lot of noise.
Mind you, at 91k miles and bearing in mind the flooding it's been through followed by snow/ice/salt on the roads in the last few months it's reasonable enough to expect some wear and tear.

So..... on a 3 door Stilo is it a straight swap out bearing for bearing or is it more complicated than that ???

I need it fixed ASAP so before I start hunting down bits I'd like to know

i would assume its just like any other bearing mate, hub off stick it in the press, press it out, press new one on, voila!

Gone are the days when we could tap out a front/rear bearing and remove the seal at the rear and very much do the same ..the stilo has ABS and has a pick up on the face of the bearing so if this is fitting incorrectly it means it screws the abs and will throw up a dash light ..beep beep beep Oops I think i screwed up some where..

Might be quicker to change the hub with bearing assembly ,,to press out the old bearing and fit the new one can be a real pain and easy to damage around £40 iirc from a main fiat dealer ,

Complete hub from shop4 is £47 iirc..P&P and vat on top of course..

So, £40 for a new hub? That's a smidgen cheaper than I epected???

Ah life has never been so good..lol

I was expecting something in the order of twice that..... good. I have a new fishing stick on order which the wife doesn't know about

Hey ABZSTILO was that a pun you put in your op "bearing in mind" lolllll but i would think the 47 plus vat would be well worth the the time and hassle you would save

Well spotted
Thought Phil would have beaten you to it
