The short version
- The 2003 to 2007 XC70 wheel bearing pair is 513194 front and 512253 rear, both bolt-on hubs.
- The earlier V70 XC era runs 513175 up front with the pressed 513130 at the AWD rear.
- Nothing here matches the XC90, despite the shared prefix.
- These are the S60 and S80’s numbers wearing wagon duty.
Volvo’s lifted wagon borrowed everything mechanical from its sedan family, which makes its bearing chart one of the tidiest in the Swedish aisle: two numbers for the classic years, both shared with half the range.
The 2003 to 2007 pair
The front XC70 wheel bearing is the 513194 hub, shared with the S60, S80 and V70; the AWD rear is 512253, shared just as widely.
Two bolt-on assemblies, no press, deep listings.

Every model year this chart resolves: 1998, 1999, 2000, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006 and 2007. On this chart a 2008 or newer Volvo XC70 sits past the catalogs, so those cars go by the old part or the VIN.

Not the XC90’s parts
The XC90 runs 513208 and 512273; nothing on this page crosses over despite the family styling.
That vehicle is on the XC90 page. Search by your model’s numbers, not the XC badge.
The sedan family discount
Because the 513194 front serves the S60, S80 and V70 too, this wagon’s parts stay commodity-priced years after production. The sedan side is on the S60 page, the predecessor era on the 850 page, and the make overview on the Volvo page.
Gravel-road duty
XC70s get bought for dirt driveways and forest roads, and washboard surfaces hammer bearings the way potholes do in cities. A hum after a gravel summer earned its way in honestly.
Impact damage is on the pothole page.
Diagnosing an XC70 wheel bearing
- Name the era: V70 XC, 2003 to 2007, or third generation.
- Weave at speed and place the hum.
- Rock each wheel at twelve and six.
- Rule out all-terrain tires if fitted.
- On the early AWD rear, plan press work.
The routine is on the checking page.
