The one that fits!

That's not the way it works. you buy a socket set. It has one set of AF Sockets and one set of Metric sockets. The one you use is the one that fits.

Front wheel bearing torque is usually about one uga dugga.

Remove the axle nut. Put a punch in the fins of the rotor to keep the hub from spinning. Remove the caliper and the rotor. Unplu the abs harness. Remove the three bolts that hold the hub to the knuckle. Remove the hub/bearing from the knuckle. Reverse to install. Make sure you torque the three bolts that hold the bearing to the knuckle and the axle nut to the correct torques spec. Failure to do so will cause premature bearing failure. Also use a good quality bearing. SKF is a good brand. Let me know if you have any questions and I'll do my best to answer them. Thank you for using FixYa.com!

The Saturn Vue should have a bolt-on bearing with integrated wheel hub and ABS. It is held on with 3 bolts.

I assume that you got the wheel, rotor, and brake caliper off. You've removed the 3 bolts thru the knuckle to the bearing. And you have the axle nut off and the axle pushed out or at least lose from the bearing spline.

The bearing can get stuck in the aluminum knuckle pilot diameter. The galvanic corrosion between the bearing and knuckle can lock the bearing into the knuckle pretty tightly. It is not a press fit, it's just stuck. I had one GM bearing that had to be pushed out with a hydraulic press.

Keep soaking with penetrating oil and keep hitting it. Otherwise you'll need to remove the knuckle/bearing from the car and find a press.

If ABS light is on,you still have base brakes,just like an older vehicle with no ABS.Not a problem,as a matter of fact I always disable the ABS on my vehicles because I don't like it.

Removal & Installation Front To Remove:
The front wheel bearings are not serviced separately. If the front wheel bearings are defective, the hub and bearing assembly must be replaced.

1. Before servicing the vehicle, refer to the precautions in the beginning of this section.
2. Lubricate the threads on the halfshaft with clean engine oil.
3. Remove or disconnect the following:
   • Front wheels
   • Halfshaft hub nut
   • Caliper from the steering knuckle WARNING
     DO NOT allow the brake hose to support the weight of the caliper.
     
   • Brake rotor
   • Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) sensor from the backing plate
   • Hub and bearing assembly from the backing plate
   • Hub and bearing assembly from the halfshaft
   • Hub and bearing assembly

To Install:
Exploded view of the front hub mounting and related components

1. Install or connect the following:
   • Hub and bearing assembly onto the halfshaft
   • Hub and bearing assembly to the backing plate. Torque the 3 bolts alternately and evenly to 70 ft. lbs. (95 Nm).
   • ABS sensor
   • Brake rotor
   • Caliper on the steering knuckle.
   • Halfshaft nut. Torque it to 118 ft. lbs. (160 Nm).
   • Front wheel. Torque the nuts to 100 ft. lbs. (140 Nm).

Greg,
Sounds like wheel bearing issues. I've had my front wheel bearings replaced twice on an 02 Vue AWD V-6. The 02-07 Vues use the same wheel bearings and they are a known issue with these
cars. Another problem with these cars is the rear support bearing for the drive shaft in the AWD models. I recommend having the wheel bearings and rear carrier bearing checked out. Good luck.

spray with penetrating oil and let sit. hit with a big hammer. if it still will not come loose remove knuckle and use a press to remove bearing.

Hi all,
I currently own a 2005 saturn vue and also a 2002 saturn vue. My 2005 began making the same whistling sound around 36000 miles, I let it go and let it go. Finally it got so bad I could not deal with it any longer, I have a great mechanic and he automatically point out the carrier bareing I had it replaced and my car is very very peaceful...... :) Hope this helps.
