Repair Cost Guide

Wheel bearing replacement cost
for a Honda CR-V

Replacing a wheel bearing on a Honda CR-V involves removing the wheel, brake caliper, and rotor to access and press out the old hub/bearing assembly and install a new one. Cost is primarily driven by whether the part is sold as a complete hub assembly (more expensive but easier) or just the bearing, and whether the vehicle has 2WD or AWD, which affects part complexity and labour time.

Cost breakdown

Parts: ~$80-$200 / Labour: ~$140-$250

What affects the price

2WD vs. AWD model (AWD rear bearings are more complex and costly)
OEM vs. aftermarket part quality and warranty
Severity of corrosion/seizure requiring extra labour for removal

Can you do it yourself?

Possible with skill — Requires a hydraulic press, torque wrench, and potentially a large breaker bar. Pressing the bearing in/out is the most challenging step for a home mechanic.

Tips before you pay

Diagnose carefully; a humming noise that changes with speed and cornering is a classic bearing symptom.
Consider replacing the hub assembly (if available) instead of just the bearing to save significant labour time.
Always torque the axle nut to the exact factory specification to prevent premature bearing failure.
