Wife has this X5 now and daily drives it back and forth to work but I don't think that is what killed this bearing.

If anyone remembers the other thread I had with the wheel not coming off after I forced it on from the mushroomed hub I think that explains what caused this one to fail so fast.

That wheel was beat on for a few weeks by everyone that wanted a shot at trying to hammer the wheel off. A mechanic finally hammered it off the car.

I don't think the wheel bearing faired to wheel in all of the abuse.

Anyways Im sitting here trying to convince myself to do this all over again.....
