This page covers the 2006-2011 Honda Civic: 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011. Other years live on the main Civic wheel bearing page.
A 2008 Honda Civic wheel bearing front is 510073 for a VIN starting with J, built in Japan. It is 510089 for a VIN starting with 1 or 2, built in North America.
The 2.0L Si does not follow this split; it uses 510073 regardless of build location. Check the VIN’s first character before ordering a 1.8L front bearing.
Year by year
2006 through 2008 carry the fully documented front rows, split by build country or by Si trim. The rear splits by coupe or sedan body, versus GX and hybrid trim. A Timken parallel rear disc row, HA590164, also appears in 2006-2007.
2008 also introduces the 512256 rear row for EX, EX-L, and Si trim. This row runs alongside the earlier rows through the rest of the documented span.
2009 through 2011 carry rear rows 512256 and 512257. The front continues on the same 1.8L, Si, and hybrid numbers established earlier in the generation.
Build country enters the Civic bearing chart
The 2006-2011 Civic is the first generation on this page where build country decides part of the order. A 2008 Honda Civic wheel bearing front depends on where the car was assembled, not on trim or year alone.
Other Civic generations split differently. See the 2001-2005 Civic page for a split by Si generation, or the 2012-2015 Civic page for a rear split by build country.
Checking the VIN takes a moment and avoids ordering the wrong front bearing on a 1.8L car.
Diagnosing a 2006-2011 Civic wheel bearing
- Listen for a hum that grows with speed. A worn wheel bearing on this Civic produces a steady hum that gets louder as road speed increases. The pitch often shifts when turning.
- Use press-in bearing handling once removed. The front bearings on this generation press into the knuckle rather than bolting on as a hub unit. A hydraulic press is the correct tool for removal and installation.
- Rock the wheel to check for play. With the wheel off the ground, grip it top and bottom and rock firmly. Movement in the hub points to the bearing.
- Read the VIN before ordering a front bearing. J at the start means Japan-built and 510073; 1 or 2 means North America and 510089. The Si always uses 510073 regardless.
- Confirm trim and year for the rear. EX, EX-L, and Si from 2008 on take 512256; DX, DX-VP, GX, LX, and Sport from 2009 on take 512257. Earlier years use the HA590152 or 512322 rows instead.
Common questions
What wheel bearing does a 2008 Honda Civic use?
A 2008 Honda Civic wheel bearing front is 510073 for a Japan-built 1.8L or the 2.0L Si, and 510089 for a USA-built 1.8L. The rear depends on trim, with EX, EX-L, and Si using 512256.
What wheel bearing does a 2010 Honda Civic use?
A 2010 Civic follows the same front numbers established earlier in the generation, by build country or Si. The rear uses 512256 for EX, EX-L, and Si, or 512257 for DX, DX-VP, GX, LX, and Sport.
How do I tell if my Civic was built in Japan or North America?
Check the first character of the VIN. J means Japan-built; 1 or 2 means North America-built, and that determines the front 1.8L number.
Does the Si front bearing depend on build country?
No. The 2.0L Si uses 510073 across the whole 2006-2011 generation, regardless of where the car was assembled. Only the 1.8L front splits by build country.
What is the HA590164 rear part used for?
HA590164 is a Timken parallel row for the rear disc setup in 2006-2007. Parallel listings exist alongside the other rear rows; match the number on the old part when ordering.
