Timken Wheel Bearing Assembly P/N:BM500017
Timken BM500012 wheel bearing for the 2008-2012 Audi R8 and other vehicles lets the wheel spin freely on its hub. This Timken wheel bearing assembly is built as one bearing module that supports the wheel.
A humming or growling noise that changes with speed, play at the wheel or a vibration can mean a bearing is wearing out. Before you replace the bearing, rule out uneven tire wear and loose or worn suspension parts, which can make similar noises. This listing is one bearing, and both sides are normally replaced together.
The vehicles it fits include the 2008-2012 Audi R8, the 2005-2011 Audi A6 Quattro and the 2007-2011 Audi S6. If your car is not named here, look it up in the "Vehicles it fits" section.
