Wheel Bearing Replacement
2013 C300 4-Matic, have 2 bad front wheel bearings. I found replacement bearings at pelican parts along with pretty decent how to tech document. However I don't see a bearing replacement kit. I know I need grease but I don't see an inboard seal listed. Anybody that has done this know of anything else I would need. Also this is a one piece bearing right?

Is your car 4matic or rwd?
here is a video of a rwd model;
Bearing is two piece; https://www.ebay.ca/itm/For-2008-201...2:pf:0&vxp=mtr
If its 4matic, then its a one piece bearing, it will be like changing a front bearing on any fwd car, just get the knuckle loose from the strut/balljoints and bring it to a shop to have them press the old bearing in and install a new one. Then you just have reinstall the knuckle yourself.

I would only recommend Timken /NTN or National for bearing brands. Mercedes sources them from Timken anyway so if the dealer wants a lot more then that one on ebay, they're ripping you off for a Timken bearing inside a Mercedes box.
