- John from to the garage finds and eliminates the droning noise in his 2wd 2005 Nissan Elgrand 3.5. Includes before and after sound recordings from inside the car and all of the torque settings you need to do the same to your Elgrand.
As promised in the video here is a link to the oft asked about seat that John often uses when working on his cars.

I used to change all 4bearings on my old Morris Marina's in an afternoon🤣. These are rather more substantial items!
Very nicely done John. Very helpful to anyone doing the same job. Bearing puller and press definitely needed on that monster bearing though!!
Thanks Mike 👍. It was 50% bigger than I anticipated it would be
Not a job I would ever attempt to do. Well done.
Thanks J👍
My Jaguar STR had a bent hub causing bad brake shudder. The hub was stuck in the vertical link so hard I had to take the vertical link off and use a hydraulic press to get the hub out, and it came out with a huge BANG!
Its still a mystery to me how it gripped the hub that hard. Its not even an interference fit. I could practically throw the new bearing in once I cleaned the hub up! Salt and dissimilar metals, a powerful combination I guess.
@@ToTheGarage Indeed John, chasing a rattle I changed a hub on my 2007 XKR with 45k on the clock and it just fell out!!
Thanks mate doing mine Now and this vid is great
No problem 👍
Great job John now I know I haven't got the tools for this job lol, love ya work Cheers Kurt.
Thanks 👍
Hi John,. Well done, good Job.
Hey, thanks
Anti roll bar bushes only was causing this. Its a dull "dunk" as they flex more with age and wear.. For anyone else, anti roll bar bushes are amongst the cheapest and sinplest things to diy. Aslong as you make sure it goes back together properly and tightened up you cant really go wrong. Most jdms use the same set up, there are just variations in placement and size.
I've changed my Elgrand s front wheelbearing,but now it stays in the four wheel drive mode
Really great video. Thanks. 👍🏻
You are welcome
Just seem to be a common issue with the more demanding nissans/infiniti and my elgrand and infiniti both need w/bearing swaps!
Never had an Infiniti. Yet🤔
By the way great instructional video
Glad you liked it!
Hello there I have a question where can buy the jjack that you are using for lifting the van up to the height just enough to work on your noise front right
Hi John I’m getting the noise on my Elgrand I have no play in the wheel do you think change them anyway ? Let me know if you can thanks
Great video, thanks!
Just wondering who you you use for parts on these? I am looking at an import minivan (maybe these, Elysion or Alphard) and am interested how tricky/costly parts are to get. I'm a pretty keen DIY mechanic, so finding someone to work on them wouldn't be an issue.
Also, have you done any cavity waxing/rustproofing now she's getting exposed to our salty climes?!
Hi James.
I used this place for the bearings and belts that I purchasedbmr-automotive.com/e51-parts
and eurocarparts can supply discs and pads.
My experience so far is that the mechanical items are not too much of a problem to find and prices are not ridiculous (similar to Navarah or 350Z prices)
Body panels and interior trim items will be more difficult but there are a surprising number of Elgrand / Alphard specialists who are often breaking cars if you start to search for them.
As she was imported through a specialist (by previous owner ) she was undersealed on arrival in the UK in 2018 But I am considering topping that up with a product like Lanoguard.
@@ToTheGarage Thank you, I hadn't found BMR. I think you're right, half the battle is finding out which parts cross pollinate between models.
On the underseal, we're clearly on the same page, I will be looking for a fresh import which I can get undersealed and then top up every few years!
I just bought a elgrand 2008 and noticed the fans won't turn off. Any help.with solving this ussue
Very informative video, thanx!
Where did you get your replacement wheel bearings???
I am in BC Canada and cannot find replacement parts outside of Japan, which will cost a fortune.
Do you know if any Nissan Quest model wheel bearings are interchangeable with the 2002 E51 Elgrand?
Hi I got mine here in the UK via this web site
bmr-automotive.com/e51-parts
Not yet familiar enough with the Elgrand to comment on compatible parts unfortunately but I THINK there are Infinity models that use the exact same running gear. We dont get the Quest in the UK at all, so I dont even know what one looks like😔. Guess what im Googling now😁
wow, did all that and the bearings I ordered were the wrong size!
I want to just order the entire hub and wheel assembly, but can't find it. Why can't I find the hub for this vehicle???
Is yours a 2002 E51 too?
Hi John, I have change my front wheel bearing , but I don’t know why ‘ the ABS AND 4 WD’ indicator was on while I driving , pls let me know what is causes the problems? Thankyou John
If the wheel speed (ABS) sensor is damaged or disconnected then that could cause both of those lights to come on. As they would certainly have been disconnected when the bearings were replaced, that is a good place to start. ALso it is possible to buy bearings withought the magnetic pulse disc on them that is necessary for ABS sensors to detect that your wheel is rotating.
Thankyou for your time answered my question John.
By the way I forgot to ask you one small question ( is the car alright to drive when the indicator light is on ?) Thankyou John
thank you John very nicely documented .I am thinking of making or buying a small 5 ton bench press. Do you think it would be up to this type of job? Thank you for your time and for sharing❤
Yes, absolutely. Mine is 12 ton but 5 is more than enough to push the new bearing on to the hub spindle
Hi buddy I've got a 2002 Nissan Elgrand in SA need to change back wheel hub and bearings. Do you have a video on that. Also to order part with part no please. Regards Danie
Hi Danie. Dont have a video at the moment. Is yours a RWD or a 4WD? I have a set of RWD bearings on my bench and when i go home next i can note down the part number for you. I would assume the rears will be the same on a RWD and a FWD?
Part numbers differ for the 2wd and the 4wd
I have to cut the nut and I cut tthe washer with the flat sides do you know the number for the washer with the flat sides inside?
Has anyone figured out the compatible vehicle that would have the bearing and hub already fitted together ?
I have elgrand E51 with few issues runs really well just getting burning oil been told to change the pcv valve which I have got just looks a nightmare to do! Do you have any ideas?
Hope you can help, I have a 2010 e52 that needs min new discs at rear,local Halfords can’t source or do the job as it is an import and they don’t have the toque settings. Firstly need to know best place to get the discs and then whether torque setting on here should be the same
Hi The E52 is a completely different beast based on a new frontwheel drive platform so i would not be able to advise based on my knowledge of the E51. However try this link for brake discs

Can you remove/change the wheel nut bolts? I somehow managed to damage the thread on a couple of them.
Bro those jacks.
I want them. Wow.
Need them.
How much are they?
Strongman 'Clifton' Mobile scissorlift is about £1500 Plus VAT and delivery
I have a 2005 Nissan Elgrand highway star do these take a abs bearing
as long as its a 2 wheel drive car, the bearings will be same as mine.
doesn't the WD40 mess with your torque reading?
Thats actually a very interesting point. It depends on the application. In this situation no, The nut is pulling up against a fixed stop. So the torque applied is all about ensuring the nut never moves. if you were doing up the hub nut on an old school car with 3 part taper bearings (marina cortina cavalier etc). the torque applied affects the distance the nut travels along the thread and therefore the preload (lack of end float) applied to the bearings. That would be bad👍👍👍
Those spindles look awful weak to me. G clamp is more accurately descriptive than C clamp.
I think G clamp too. But C Cramp is a very popular description. C I can live with. Cramp just felt like a widely repeated mispronunciation ?
