Key Features

• First-generation compact wheel bearing unit with preset bearing clearance
• Sealed and lubricated for life, with no routine maintenance required
• Angular contact ball bearing design for front wheel service
• Inside diameter: 45 mm (1.772 in)
• Outside diameter: 84 mm (3.307 in)
• Height: 39 mm (1.535 in)
• Direct-fit replacement for FAG 101817 applications

Application Details

This FAG 101817 wheel bearing is used on front axle applications where a compact, durable bearing assembly is required. It fits 2007-2013 Suzuki SX4, front; 2012 Suzuki SX4 Crossover, front; and 2006-2011 Mercedes-Benz B200, front. This part also cross-references SKF FW29 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Front wheel bearing noise such as humming or growling
• Excessive wheel play caused by bearing wear
• Rough wheel rotation from damaged internal bearing surfaces
• Seal failure that can allow lubricant loss and contamination
• Service issues on Suzuki SX4 and Mercedes-Benz B200 front hubs

Installation Notes

Verify the bearing dimensions and vehicle fitment before installation. Because this is a sealed, pre-lubricated wheel bearing unit, it is installed as a replacement component rather than serviced with routine grease maintenance. Confirm the front position and match the application to the vehicle year and model listed above.

Quality Assurance

FAG wheel bearings are manufactured as compact, sealed units with preset clearance and lifetime lubrication for consistent operation in demanding front-wheel service. Part number 101817 is built to the stated dimensional specifications and application coverage for the listed vehicles.
