Here’s how we ensure you stay in control from start to finish.

 

Effortless 24/7 Online Booking to Give You Peace of Mind in Seconds

If you’ve battled your car pulling to one side all the way home from the office, the last thing you want to do is wait until 9am tomorrow to ring a local garage and book an appointment to get the problem checked out.

You want the peace of mind that comes with getting the issue sorted right now.

That’s why we offer 24/7 online booking, so you can book a wheel bearing replacement even when local garages are shut. No stress. No hassle. Just a straightforward booking process whenever you need it.

You may even be able to find a same- or next-day appointment to restore confidence in your car quicker. In these cases, we do recommend giving your chosen garage a call before driving on a worn wheel bearing just to ensure they can fit you in and save any additional stress.

 

Every Local Option Available at the Touch of a Button

Comparing local garages can be challenging. You want to make sure you get the best deal but finding and then comparing all your options can take time that you don’t have – especially when you’re worried about driving your car on faulty wheel bearings.

More importantly, it can be difficult to know where to look to find the right garage for you.

That’s why we exist. We’re dedicated to helping every UK driver find their perfect garage and get the best car maintenance deal in the process. It’s why we provide transparent comparison and show as many local garages as possible to help you make the right choice and why we show verified, unfiltered reviews from previous customers to highlight genuine experiences.

Those are just two reasons why drivers like you have compared MOT, servicing and repair prices 23.5 million through our comparison site, and why we have thousands of 5* reviews across Trustpilot and Google.

When you book your wheel bearing replacement at a garage you found through us, you know it’s one you can trust and will want to go back to again and again.

 

You’ll Always Find Value for Money – Whatever Matters Most to You

Whether you want to find the closest or highest-rated garage or book the cheapest wheel bearing replacement near you, we’ve got you covered. You can sort local results your way, by clicking the Sort By option in the top right-hand corner and selecting from Price, Distance, Availability, Reviews or even Name, if you want to see if a specific garage is on our platform.

We always default to Relevance which shows the best all-round options based on the factors above – so you can always choose the one we think will be best for you if you get stuck for choice!

 

Transparent Prices for Total Peace of Mind

We remove the stress of nasty surprises or hidden fees because every garage sets their own labour rate and wheel bearing replacement quotes – so the price you receive is the price you pay unless you agree to additional repairs with them directly.

Most importantly, there are no booking fees and, apart from some mobile mechanics, no need to enter payment details upfront. That way, you don’t need to worry about your wheel bearing replacement coming in over budget.

 

Book Your Wheel Bearing Replacement in Seconds

We make it as simple as possible to book your wheel bearing replacement. We help you find an appointment whenever you have time, rather than ringing round local garages during your busy day, and we always keep you in control of the process to ensure you drive away satisfied.

Enter your reg and postcode now to find the perfect local garage for your wheel bearing replacement and book an appointment in seconds.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Is there a way I can spread the cost of my repairs?

Some garages may offer finance options like Payment Assist or Klarna to help you spread the cost of unexpected, expensive repairs.

Unfortunately, we’re not able to show who offers these services at this stage, so you will need to choose a garage and then contact them directly to see if they can help should you need a repayment plan.

Are my wheel bearings the problem?

Grinding or humming noises coming from the wheels when you turn a corner or accelerate, vibrations in the steering wheel that get worse the faster you go or a burning smell coming from the tyres are good indicators that your wheel bearings are faulty and need replacing.

Other symptoms such as the car pulling to one side or uneven tyre wear can also indicate a problem with your suspension or wheel alignment. If these are the only symptoms you’ve noticed, a wheel bearing replacement may not be what your car needs.

If you’re not sure exactly what your problem is, we recommend booking a general repair at a local garage and providing details in the ‘Notes for Garage’ box to let them know what you’re experiencing. This will help the technician begin their diagnosis.

Why can I not see instant prices?

We’re currently working hard on adding wheel bearing replacement as one of our instant price products. In the meantime, you can compare local garages by labour rates to keep the cost of your repair down and find the best deal near you.

What are labour rates?

A labour rate is the price a garage charges for an hour of their time.

Each garage listed on our platform sets their own labour rates, taking into account their level of expertise, any specialist equipment or facilities they have access to and their general staffing costs and overheads, to provide a competitive rate that fairly compensates them for their work.

We show labour rates when there is no instant price available for your repair as labour costs make up most of the final bill, especially for a lengthy job.

How do I sort garages by something else?

Click the Sort By button in the top right-hand corner of the results page and then select the option from the dropdown that best suits your needs. Our algorithm will then show you the most relevant garages based on the factor you have deemed most important.

We also offer filter options on the left-hand side bar, allowing you to add additional products, change the search radius or postcode you’re searching in or find a garage open on a specific day, if needed.

Changing the filter options will reload the results which may result in fewer or different garages appearing depending on what filter you have applied (i.e. vehicle collection and delivery is currently unavailable for stand-alone repair bookings).

Can I find a garage who can replace my wheel bearing tomorrow?

Yes, you might be able to find a same- or next-day wheel bearing replacement by comparing local garages. Each listing has an Available From date (the day the garage has said they can next fulfil a booking made right now) clearly shown, but you can also ‘Sort By Availability’ to clearly see any garages who can fit you in tomorrow. This can help you book the best deal faster if an urgent appointment is your main priority.

Does a wheel bearing replacement take very long?

A wheel bearing replacement usually takes between one and two hours. This can vary depending on whether you need a front or rear wheel bearing replacement, what make and model you drive and how many wheel bearings need replacing.

Your chosen garage will be able to let you know how long the replacement will take when you turn up for the appointment to help you better plan your day.

Can I trust the garage I’m choosing?

Every review shown on our comparison listings is from a genuine customer detailing a verified previous experience – so if your chosen garage has dozens of glowing 5* reviews, it’s likely that you’ll receive the best customer care during your wheel bearing replacement.

We also refuse to work with any garages that don’t put drivers first or provide sub-standard experiences and will remove any from our platform that continually fail to meet our high standards.

What do silver, gold and top tier badges mean?

Our badge system recognises the very best garages in your area for their dedication to customer service and high-quality car maintenance. We have strict criteria they must continually meet or exceed to retain this badge, and limit numbers in any one area to ensure we’re properly rewarding those who always go above and beyond. It also makes it easier for you to find a garage that will give you an exceptional experience.

Will I have a wide choice of local garages?

We pride ourselves on offering national coverage, with thousands of UK garages currently listed on our platform and more signing up every week.

However, we appreciate that coverage may be patchy in some areas or for certain repairs. If you want to see more options, you can increase the default radius up to 25 miles from the postcode you’ve entered, depending on how far you’re prepared to travel for your wheel bearing replacement.

This will ensure you have the widest possible choice and can always ensure you’ve found the best deal near you.

When do I need to replace my wheel bearings?

Wheel bearings usually last between 85,000 and 100,000 miles so most drivers don't need to worry about replacing them during their car’s lifetime.

If your car hasn't covered anywhere near this number of miles and you haven’t had a significant collision with a kerb, pothole or another vehicle that damaged one or more wheel bearings, you may need another repair instead.
