How much rear bearing for 323 V6 costs in uk for example. Is there any alternative (B-category) replacement part?

Are you talking wheel bearing ? if so I think, dont quote me tho that it comes as a full hub unit.... check back on here a couple of months ago there was a post on this..

I got a replacement front bearing for about £35 ish I think from local motor factors

U meant that? I used the search BEFORE I made the post.

unfortunately I could not find any answer. Yes I could have used the same topic -- that's my bad.

Prepare yourself for bad news matey. The V6 rear bearing comes as a complete hub assembly. In the UK, there is nobody who can supply an alternative part, so you'll have to go to Mazda to get one. Expect to pay around £156 plus VAT - I've just had one replaced. Nightmare!

I know that it is a one big chunk. I've bought two already and have bad feeling i need to buy one more.

I've ran some tests and the wheeles and stuff seems to be ok. At the moment I have winter tyres (with spikes(?)) and the mild rumbling sound might be from that. Never the less -- I'm quite sensitive about that.
