The short version
- A Rogue wheel bearing splits at the rear by drivetrain, in both generations. The badge alone does not tell you which you have.
- The front does not split by drivetrain. It changes at the generation boundary instead, in 2014.
- The 2014 to 2015 Rogue Select mixes parts from both generations, front from the old one and rear from the new one.
- 2020 and 2021 Rogues sit past the catalogs and go by the old part or the VIN.
A Rogue wheel bearing spans model years 2008 to 2021. Nissan sold this model in both drivetrains for its whole run.
That means the model year narrows the front, but it never narrows the rear on its own.
The drivetrain split
On 2008 to 2013 cars, all wheel drive is cited with 512373 and front wheel drive with 512398. On 2014 onward cars, all wheel drive moves to 512535 and front wheel drive to 512534, later extended under WE61795.
A driveshaft running to a rear differential means all wheel drive. Nothing back there means front wheel drive.
The front does not split this way. It changes by generation, not by drivetrain.

Every model year this chart resolves: 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019. A 2020 or 2021 Rogue sits past the catalogs and goes by the old part or the VIN.
Some of the same numbers above also appear under a separate Rogue Sport listing. The Rogue Sport is its own model, not a trim of this one.
Match the number against the part on the vehicle. Do not assume a Rogue Sport listing confirms a plain Rogue fitment.
Cross referencing is on the cross reference page.
The Rogue Select is not a simple carryover
The 2014 to 2015 Rogue Select kept selling the outgoing body alongside the redesigned Rogue. Its front hub matches the old generation, 513298.
Its rear hub matches the new generation instead, 512535 for all wheel drive. A writer or a buyer should not assume Select parts match one generation across the board.
The front versus rear split here is unusual enough to double check against the front versus rear page.
The tire wear connection
Running tires at different tread depths on an all wheel drive car forces the system to work constantly. That loads the driveline and the hubs.
It also produces a hum that sounds exactly like a failing bearing.
Check tread depths across all four before condemning a hub. That symptom overlap is on the tire noise page.
Diagnosing a Rogue wheel bearing
- Confirm the drivetrain by looking underneath before ordering.
- Check for Rogue Select badging on 2014 to 2015 cars.
- Measure tread depth on all four tires.
- Coast in neutral at the noise speed.
- Weave at road speed and note which direction loads the noise.
Those steps are on the checking page. A written estimate is worth comparing on the quote page.

Common questions
How do I know which Rogue wheel bearing I need?
Check the drivetrain first. The rear part is cited differently for all wheel drive and front wheel drive in both generations.
Is the Rogue Select the same as the 2014 Rogue?
Not entirely. Its front matches the outgoing 2008 to 2013 car, while its rear matches the new 2014 body.
Does the front split by drivetrain?
No. The front changes at the generation boundary only, in 2014.
Could mismatched tires be the noise?
On an all wheel drive car, easily. Measure tread depths before spending anything.
Do I need a press?
No. These are bolt on hub units at both ends.
