The short version
- A 2012 Nissan Titan wheel bearing order depends on the build date first: trucks built through December 2011 use 515125, trucks built after that split by drivetrain.
- 2008 through 2011 trucks stay on one number, 515125, the whole time.
- From the December 2011 build line on, the front hub also splits by drivetrain, 515155 for 4WD or 515156 for 2WD, through most of 2015.
- Late 2015 builds are not documented, match the old part or the VIN.
The 2008-2015 Nissan Titan carries a mid-generation change that trips up quick lookups. A 2012 Nissan Titan wheel bearing order has to be checked against the door jamb build date before anything else.

This page covers the 2008-2015 Nissan Titan: 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015. Other years live on the main Nissan Titan wheel bearing page.
2012 is a build-date year, not a clean model-year split. The door-jamb date decides whether a truck is on 515125 or on the drivetrain-split numbers, and drivetrain only matters after that date is checked.
Late 2015 builds are not documented. Match the old part or confirm by VIN rather than guessing at a number.
Year by year
2008 through 2011 stay on one number, 515125, with no drivetrain split to worry about. A 2012 Nissan Titan wheel bearing order changes that pattern mid-year.
Trucks built through December 2011 keep 515125. Trucks built from that line onward move to 515155 for 4WD or 515156 for 2WD, and that drivetrain split carries through 2013 and 2014.
2015 keeps the same drivetrain-split numbers for trucks built through November 2014. Later 2015 builds are not documented, so matching the old part is the reliable route.
A build date that matters more than the model year
Most generations on this site split by ABS type or drivetrain alone. This Titan adds a build-date line, which means the door jamb sticker matters as much as the title’s model year.
The earlier Titan, covered on the 2004-2007 Titan page, has no such wrinkle. One number covers that whole generation.
Diagnosing a 2008-2015 Nissan Titan wheel bearing
- Check for play with the wheel off the ground. Grip the tire at 12 and 6 o’clock and rock it. See how to check a wheel bearing for the method.
- Listen for a hum that shifts in turns. A worn front hub often changes pitch leaning one direction. The pattern is on wheel bearing noise in turns.
- Read the door jamb build date on a 2012 or 2015 truck. That date decides which chart row applies before drivetrain even comes into it.
- Watch for an ABS or traction light. A failing front hub can trip the ABS sensor built into it. See bad bearing and the ABS light.
- Treat rear noise as an axle question. This Titan runs a solid rear axle, not a hub. Follow axle bearing versus wheel bearing instead.
Common questions
What wheel bearing does a 2012 Nissan Titan use?
A 2012 Nissan Titan wheel bearing order depends on the build date. Trucks built through December 2011 use 515125, later builds split by drivetrain into 515155 for 4WD or 515156 for 2WD.
What wheel bearing does a 2009 Nissan Titan use?
A 2009 Titan uses front hub 515125, the same number that covers the whole 2008-2011 span.
How do I know which build date my 2012 Nissan Titan has?
The door jamb sticker lists the manufacture date. That date, not the sale date, decides whether 515125 or the drivetrain-split numbers apply.
Does the 2008-2015 Nissan Titan rear use a hub assembly?
No. The rear rides on a solid axle across the whole generation, so there is no rear hub number on this page.
Why isn’t every 2015 Nissan Titan wheel bearing documented?
The catalogs stop listing rows for the latest 2015 builds. Matching the old part or confirming by VIN covers those trucks.
