The short version
- The DTS wheel bearing chart continues the DeVille’s: front 513199 superseded into 513179 for 2006 to 2011.
- Heavy duty suspension cars are excluded from that listing and carry their own.
- The rear runs its own listing in the HA590149 family; match it by VIN.
- Hearse and limousine builds differ at the rear, as they always have on this platform.
Cadillac renamed the DeVille to DTS in 2006 and kept the platform rolling to 2011. The front bearings tell the continuity story; the rear went its own way.
The front carries over
A standard-suspension DTS wheel bearing up front is the 513199 listing with its supersession into 513179, the same hub serving a decade of big GM sedans.
Cars with the heavy duty suspension package are explicitly excluded and take their own front.

The professional-car asterisk
Like the DeVille before it, DTS-based professional cars carry different rear hardware than the showroom sedan.
If yours began life in a funeral fleet, order the rear by VIN without exception.
The family it ends
This is the last of GM’s big front-drive Cadillac line, and its front bearing is the same one the story started with. The predecessor’s fuller telling, including the 2001 sensor-clip split, is on the DeVille page, the Buick running mate on the Lucerne page, and the make overview on the Cadillac page.
Big car, sensor-first symptoms
The hub-mounted sensors mean a wearing bearing often announces itself through the ABS or stability lights before the hum gets loud, familiar behavior across this platform, covered on the ABS light page.
Diagnosing a DTS wheel bearing
- Confirm standard or heavy duty suspension before a front order.
- Ask what the car was built as, since professional cars differ.
- Scan any dash lights for the wheel the code names.
- Weave gently at speed and place the hum.
- VIN-match the rear, full stop.
The routine is on the checking page.
Common questions
Which DTS wheel bearing fits the front?
On standard suspension, 513179 today, with the original 513199 fitting identically. Heavy duty cars go by VIN.
Why does the rear have no simple number here?
The listings run under the HA590149 family without a settled universal code. The VIN gets the right part in one call.
Do DeVille parts fit?
The front continues that car’s chart. The rears diverged with the rename.
Do I need a press?
No. Bolt-on hubs at both ends.
My DTS was a livery car. Does it matter?
At the rear, very likely. Order by VIN.
Can a bad hub light the dash?
Yes, and on this platform it usually speaks up before the noise does.
