I changed mine last week (07/05/2008) and found the seal in the VW kit to be a good fit in the hub. It appears to seal adequately, but i will keep an eye on it to make sure it keeps the grease in!

Rear wheel bearing

The following rear wheel bearing kit will fit the Elan and is available from most motor factors, priced £7.50 each (19/1/2008):

VW Jetta GL 1985-1998

VW Golf 1984-1992 (MK1), 1992-1998 (MK3)

However, the oil seal that comes with this kit is not the correct one.


The following oil seal is required:

GM part number 90217059 priced £9.52 each from Vauxhall dealer (19/1/2008)

or

Vauxhall Corsa 1983-1993 rear wheel bearing kit priced £7 each from local motor factors (19/1/2008)


I changed mine last week (07/05/2008) and found the seal in the VW kit to be a good fit in the hub. It appears to seal adequately, but I will keep an eye on it to make sure it keeps the grease in! Dave Pink
