Repair Cost Guide

Wheel bearing replacement cost
for a Honda Civic

Replacing a wheel bearing on a Honda Civic involves removing the wheel, brake caliper, and hub assembly to press out the old bearing and install a new one, often as a complete hub unit. The cost is primarily driven by the price of the bearing/hub assembly and the labour time required for disassembly and pressing. On a Civic, this is a common repair, so parts are readily available and labour is typically efficient.

Cost breakdown

Parts: ~$80-150 / Labour: ~$100-130

What affects the price

Whether a complete hub assembly (more expensive, easier install) or just the bearing is used
Front vs. rear wheel bearing (front often more complex and costly)
Shop labour rates and whether a press is required or available

Can you do it yourself?

Possible with skill — requires a hydraulic press, torque wrench, and knowledge of hub disassembly/assembly

Tips before you pay

Consider replacing the hub assembly as a unit to save on labour if the bearing is seized
Always replace the axle nut with a new one and torque it to spec to prevent failure
Inspect the CV axle and seals for damage while the hub is off to avoid a follow-up repair
