Product Details and Specifications
The WH513262 wheel bearing and hub assembly from MPA Electrical is a new, non-greaseable component designed to replace worn or damaged hubs on compatible Audi and Volkswagen vehicles. The assembly features a 36-spline axle interface, ensuring a secure connection to the drivetrain. Its flange is triangular with three bolt holes, each measuring 4.004 mm in diameter, and an offset of 1.888 inches, providing precise alignment and fitment. The flange diameter measures 5.37 inches, while the hub pilot diameter is 3.145 inches, matching OEM specifications for proper installation.
This assembly includes an ABS encoder type anti-lock braking system interface but does not come with an ABS sensor or wiring harness. The inclusion of a gasket or seal helps maintain protection against contaminants and moisture, preserving bearing integrity. The 5 M14 x 1.5 wheel studs provide secure wheel attachment, supporting safe vehicle operation.

- Prevents premature tire wear due to hub misalignment or bearing failure
Installation Notes and Tips
Ensure compatibility by verifying vehicle make, model, and year before installation. The flange bolt holes and stud sizes must match OEM specifications for proper fitment. Use appropriate torque settings on flange bolts and wheel studs to avoid damage. Since this assembly is not greaseable, avoid applying additional grease during installation. Confirm ABS encoder sensor functionality after installation, as the sensor is not included with this part.
