2005 M.B. C240 4 MATIC, FRONT WHEEL BEARING NOISE, NO CLUE HOW TO REMOVE....

Hey guys... Been wrenchen on the wifes car for a while. This one is a pain. I hear a thumbing rubbing grinding sound coming from drivers side front hub. Thinking its the wheel bearing... How do I get the bearing out of the hub and how does the new one go in? I heard stories of pressing it out, putting the new one in the freezer before installing in the hub... NO CLUE! Any help would be awesome, thanks!

This should be posted in the W203 forum. There might be a DIY for replacing wheel bearings. I have a couple of W203 front wheel bearing kits that are in-the-box NEW MB Parts that I never got a chance to do on my 2005 C230 that I had, in case you are interested. PM me if you are interested.
