R61 Front Wheel Hub All4S

Front Wheel Hub All4S
Just had to change the front wheel hub on my 2013 Paceman All4S. With only 6,xxx miles on the clock. Very easy to do, and took less the hour. Hardest part was getting to the 1 of the 4 bolts holding the hub on.
Old hub was stiff and when rotated by hand you could feel a "click" for every 10 degree's of rotation. Also the ABS does't kick on as much anymore, it was very sensitive when slowing on rough pavement. Less "white noise" now when driving on highway speed.
Before anyone says anything -- yes I know it was most likely covered under warranty, but it was just easier to order the part and install it myself instead of bringing the car back to the dealer. Our preferred dealer is over and hour away, and the others nearby are less then desirable.
