Detailed Description
NSK 38BWD27 is a front wheel bearing engineered for the 2007-2008 Honda Fit and built for ABS-equipped front applications. The bearing uses a magnetic encoder type ABS interface and a sealed design to support consistent wheel speed signal delivery while reducing maintenance needs. As an OE-focused component from NSK, it is built around precision bearing surfaces, low-friction operation, and sealing technology intended to hold up in demanding road conditions.
This part number, 38BWD27, is a practical replacement for front wheel bearing service on the Honda Fit when the original bearing shows wear, noise, or ABS-related signal issues. The 38BWD27 also reflects NSK’s emphasis on long bearing life and stable operating performance in automotive driveline and axle applications.
What It Helps Fix
- Front wheel bearing noise such as humming or growling
- Rough or loose wheel rotation from bearing wear
- ABS warning light concerns tied to encoder signal issues
- Water intrusion or contamination-related bearing damage
- Premature wear in front hub service on Honda Fit models
Installation Notes and Tips
Confirm the vehicle is a 2007-2008 Honda Fit with front application and ABS-equipped magnetic encoder requirements before installation. Inspect the hub, knuckle, and related sealing surfaces for wear or damage, since a new bearing performs best with clean, undamaged mating components. Proper press-fit handling is important to avoid damaging the bearing raceway or encoder seal during service.
Quality Assurance
NSK is a global bearing manufacturer and supplier to major automotive OEMs, with a focus on bearing life and operating performance in demanding conditions. The 38BWD27 is built with OE-style engineering, sealed-for-life construction, and integrated ABS encoder technology for front wheel service on the Honda Fit.
