Is there a part number for just the front wheel bearing or am I being forced to replace the entire hub?
Also, could anyone direct me to a DIY for the repair.. I've searched and there doesn't seem to be one aside from a few pointers on a competing forum.

Thanks!

I believe the bearing is sealed and you will have to replace the entire Hub. Had a sound/vibration in my 08 / 550i and it turned out to be a bearing. Dealer replaced the whole hub after extensive eliminations or other possibilities. Fixed the problem . Under warrenty so can't help further
