My advice is buy a quality bearing you dont want to be doing this twice. I unfortunately brought a cheap one and did do it twice. This happened to me about 2011 and i was working for a Skoda main dealer and was able to use some of the special tools. The main tool you need is a 12" bolt and 1" nut to draw the bearing out and the new back in. I had access to this but the other tools i didn't have. So i used what could find around the workshop.

Hi.

If you don't have one already, I would seriously invest in a Haynes manual. They are never perfect but I wouldn't be without one.

I use Mister Auto for many parts. I think they are in the UK and they usually give you a choice of brands for each part.

Good luck

Good luck with the repair.
