A fork tool is helpful in releasing the ball joints. The bearings are pressed in the hub. so you need a press to separate the parts and put it back together. A shop will do the pressing for you at good savings if you take the hub off the car. Call around to make arrangements.

How do you change wheel bearing on Renault traffic?

I would assume that the bearing will be similar to my Master, the wheel bearings are right sods, you will need a big press but before the press will be able to push the bearing out you will need to cut out the inner chase, no really even with a BIG press they wont shift, but when the center chase is removed (cutter required) the bearing will come free

How do you change a rear wheel bearing on a Toyota solara?

with a lot of time an effort. I recommend dropping the coin and leaving this one to the professionals. I have never done this and you would at least need to invest in a service manual for this type of project. toyota's are notoriously hard to work on about things like this, so really, it is probably worth your money to have your dealer do it.

How do you change the front wheel bearings on a 1990 Toyota Camry and how can you tell if they really need to be changed?

Your front bearings are sealed and are replaced only when they become noisy. A badly worn bearing will roar at speeds above 40mph and will change pitch somewhat as you change from lane to lane due to the side load that is placed on it. Tire noise (due to tires that need rotation) is sometimes mistaken for a worn bearing.
