The short version

  • The Saturn Aura wheel bearing chart is two numbers: 513214 front, 512285 rear, for 2007 to 2009.
  • Both are bolt-on hubs with the ABS sensor built in.
  • The front is the same 513214 the Pontiac G6 and 2.0 liter Cobalt run.
  • The Chevrolet Malibu of 2008 onward is this car’s platform twin.

Saturn’s last sedan is GM’s Epsilon platform wearing its final badge, and the bearings are straight from the corporate shelf. That is excellent news for a car whose brand no longer exists.

Two numbers, no qualifiers

513214 and 512285

Every Aura wheel bearing order is the 513214 front hub or the 512285 rear hub, every trim, every engine, hybrid included.

No ABS splits, no trim traps, no handedness. The rarest kind of chart on this site.

The badge is dead, the parts are not

Shop the living twins

The G6 shares the 513214 front, and the 2008 onward Malibu tracks this car closely at both ends.

Searching those names finds the same hardware at commodity prices.

The twins are on the G6 page and the Malibu page, with the make story on the Saturn page.

The sensor rides inside

Both hubs carry their wheel speed sensors, and on this platform a wearing bearing often trips the ABS or traction lights before it makes serious noise. A wheel speed code with a quiet car still deserves a bearing check.

That behavior is explained on the ABS light page.

Diagnosing an Aura wheel bearing

  1. Scan any dash lights for which wheel the code names.
  2. Weave at speed and place the hum.
  3. Rock each wheel at twelve and six.
  4. Price G6 and Malibu listings before Saturn-badged boxes.
  5. Torque the new hub to spec and check the connector.

The routine is on the checking page.

Common questions

Which Aura wheel bearing do I need?

513214 front or 512285 rear, any 2007 to 2009 car including the Green Line hybrid.

Do G6 parts fit?

The front, yes, identically. The G6’s own chart is fussier; this car got the simple years.

Do I need a press?

No. Both ends are bolt-on hub assemblies.

Can I still get parts for a dead brand?

Easily. These are corporate GM numbers sold under every parts brand.

Can a bad hub light the dash?

Yes, and on this platform it often does so before the noise gets loud.

Does the hybrid differ?

No. Same hubs as the rest of the range.

About this page

Wheel Bearing Editorial Team The Wheel Bearing Editorial Team researches, builds and edits wheelbearing.net. Every part number on the site is transcribed from manufacturer and distributor catalogs (Moog, Timken, SKF, National, BCA/NTN) rather than generated, and every vehicle page is checked against the catalog rows before it goes live. When two catalogs disagree, the page shows both readings and tells you to match the old part or the VIN. More about how this site is built.
