A wheel bearing retaining ring seats in a groove to keep the bearing from walking out of position. Circlips can distort or lose tension once removed, so they are commonly replaced whenever a wheel bearing is serviced. Signs a retaining ring may need replacing include a missing, bent or corroded ring, or a bearing that has shifted in its bore.
