Comline has highlighted factors that can accelerate wear and tear on wheel bearing and signs to look out for to indicate bearings may need replacing.

• Driving conditions: Poor road surfaces, potholes and speed bumps can all impact on bearings and reduce their lifespan. 
• Speed: Higher speeds generate more heat and friction. This will eventually reduce performance and durability. 
• Load: Heavier vehicles put more pressure on bearings which can cause faster wear. This can be a particular issue with heavier SUVs. 
• Maintenance: Improper lubrication and alignment of bearings can cause premature failure and reduce bearing life.
• Regenerative braking: Higher torque and regenerative braking on EVs can increase the stress on bearings a force them to wear prematurely. 

When it comes to replacement Comline offers a comprehensive range of aftermarket hub assembly and wheel bearing kits. These are engineered for smooth operation and complete reliability. They also offer OE-matching performance and long service life. 

These are available from Comline stockists nationwide.
