Need instruction manual/schematics for replacing 2005 kia rio driver side rear wheel bearing. i've got the wheel/hub/bearing off, not the inside ring to the bearing. i need to know how to replace it .

New style bearings are all pressfit bearings, if your hub came right out of the bearing assembly, it is time for the whole assembly. The hub assembly has a locking ring that holds the outer bearing race inside the hub, after the wheel hub has been pressed out. Then, after the lockring has been removed it can be pressed out and the new bearing can be pressed back in and then the lockring reinserted. Then the wheel hub gets pressed in.

Hi,
for the front hub its 157 - 235 Nm.

when you buy the new bearing it will have everything included

Does 2001 kia rio need to have a spacer for the driver side wheel bearings

Collapsed rear wheel bearing or worn brake shoes or pads. You will need to pull the wheel and hug off to check both.

Here's the steps....getting some pics for you....hang on a minute or two.

pull off rim. there is a cap in the center of the hub that you will have to tap/pry out with a screwdriver, then remove bolt and slide hub off.
thats how i fixed mine.

it is actually caused by a bad spindle. this happened to my best friend numerous times also. if the spindle is not replaced when the bearings are it will just keep happening.
