You will get charged £20 for the part and .5 labour

I'd say £50

a total rip off

I did one of mine a while ago, 17 quid for the bearing, and it took just over half an hour, but it was freezing and I could barely feel my fingers at the time

they are so easy to adjust as this is mot probably what you need,

all you need to do is take the wheel off, pop the dust cap off the wheel bearing, and adjust it by ether putting a 22mm spanner on the castelated nut (make sure you pull out the split pin) and litteraly just tighten the nut till it lines up with the next hole which will be minimal tightening i asure you, then new split pin and hay presto your wheel bearing has got rid of the exsessive free play and is propperly adjusted, i do ahve a tutorial of this up on another website but i cant seem to get into the Wiki area which its held it, so when i find it i'll U2U you with the link for it. will only take you about 20 minuits for doing both sides
