I suspect the brake heat from tracking is not nice.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Had a pic of my replaced front wheel bearings lying around from awhile ago. Thought folks here might like the pic of the damage. Lots of rumbling in the front. I suspect the brake heat from tracking is not nice. Fun to take them apart and check out the races. PS, the bearing crosses p/n's w/ BMW and VW. So if you get it from VW, it's a bit cheaper. I used the BMW cross since it was on hand at the local warehouse.

POST 2Original post

Thanks for sharing

POST 3Original post

Very interesting it crosses with a BMW part #... VW or MB I can understand but BMW?

POST 4Original post

Thanks for the pic along w/the symptom. That will come in handy!

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Haven't had a problem since w/ a dozen DE's now, but did have an interesting discussion w/ some race folks who mentioned they would just open the seals and inject hi temp DuPont Krytox into them for racing applications. Very expensive stuff for the high temp. BTW, it happened on the other wheel too, just not as bad as the one pictured. I'm not as much of a hack now (pause) and now brake hard and short. I understand that can keep the brakes (and bearings) cooler as well.
