This page covers the 2008-2017 Audi A5: 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017. Other years live on the main Audi A5 wheel bearing page.
A 2010 Audi A5 wheel bearing is not decided by front versus rear. The same two numbers cover both, split by inner ring length measured on the old part.
The kit, BR930817K, is a parallel catalog reading of the front pair. Match it the same way rather than treating it as a separate option.
Year by year
2008 through 2017 run on one set of listings. A 2010 Audi A5 wheel bearing follows the same rules as a 2016 one.
Measure the inner ring length on the old part first: 15mm means 513301, 19mm means 512574.
2010-2014 adds the 32mm reading, 512557, on top of the ring length rows for those years only.
Two numbers, one measurement
The A5 spent this whole run on one pair of front and rear numbers. That keeps shopping simple once the ring length is known.
Guessing by trim does not work here. The catalogs split by the measurement on the old part, not by badge.
Cars from 2018 onward sit on a separate table rather than this one.
Diagnosing an Audi A5 wheel bearing
- Listen for the noise. A worn bearing usually growls or hums, and the pitch tracks road speed, not RPM. Wheel bearing noise on turns covers the pattern.
- Rule out the tires. Uneven wear can produce a similar growl. Tire noise or wheel bearing helps sort the two apart.
- Check for play. With the wheel off the ground, rock it top and bottom to feel for looseness. How to check a wheel bearing covers the steps.
- Measure before ordering. Pull the old bearing and measure the inner ring length: 15mm means 513301, 19mm means 512574.
- Check preload after the swap. A hub that is not seated correctly can act like a bad bearing. Preload and end play covers what to check.
