8.32 series2 rear wheel bearing

[allan]

Hello

I have only just started using this site and hope that someone can help me with questions about my 8.32 series2.

A rear wheel bearing is shot, so the car is very noisy at speed. From what I have found they are the same as used on the Alfa 164 until 1992 for the 5 hole versions. They are no longer available from SKF according to there homepage:(

It seems that it is a version with a 90 teeth ring for ABS, can anyone confirm this?

I hope to get this solved and being able to contribute to this forum from now on

Yes, it is a 90 teeth version and you are looking for a bearing usedn in Alfa 164 V6 modelyear 1990-1992. Later ones have 44 teeth rings.
You can easily find the bearings on ebay.de.

A new wheel bearing is now put in and the car sounds much better - now I can hear the engine properly

OOOPS, 2 thumbs-up were intended, I don't know how the red finger smiley appeared, I don't mean no offence!
Sorry, although I don't know how this happened....

No problem, Dan

The car went through the yearly inspection today with compliments from the tester and I enjoyed the ride to and from work very much B)

Hi Dan,
glad you sorted your wheel bearing problem.
Could you tell me which car your new bearing came from,
where you got it, and the price. I'm having the same trouble
with mine, and the local Fiat dealer is unable to provide me
with any information -- or parts!!

Hi,

Check out this link on ebay.de, it is the very item you are looking for (if you're looking for a rear wheel bearing for the 8.32, that is).

http://cgi.ebay.de/Radlagersatz-ALFA-RO ... 903wt_1052

It is 5-bolt (as the 164 V6) and with 90-teeth ABS disc, as the 8.32 S1/S2 has.

Good luck,

Dan

Thanks Dan, thats the part I need.
Checked the link you gave me, and couldn't find it, maybe its been sold.
The Fiat dealer has just come up with the information that the bearing
only comes with the hub, and costs 255 euros. Does that sound right
to you'?
