Gen2 wheel bearing replacement
My right rear wheel looks (or rather sounds) like a bearing needs to be replaced. Is this an easy enough job to do? Any ideas on replacement cost?

If you have the tools, the cost would be for a (non-dealer) bearing & oil seal, which is cheap.
Dirty job (brake dust & grease).

Have you looked in that nice thick manual of yours?

Yup, but as with all things the manual makes it look simple.... What tools are necessary?

I'll look in the manual and revert.

Having looked at Chapter 27, I think I would pass it on to a good workshop.
To many special tools (which one can usually circumvent if you have done this type of thing before) and procedures which require a bit of mechanical experience.

Maybe I'm just getting lazy, after to many years of doing this type of stuff. ;)

Have both done.
