The short version
- The 2015 Subaru Legacy wheel bearing front hub is 513302 and the rear hub is 512536, both new numbers with this body.
- This is the year the front hub’s long 513220 run finally ends.
- Nothing carries over from the previous generation on either end.
- One pair covers all four years, 2015 through 2018, with no trim or drivetrain split.
2015 through 2018 is a clean break from the Legacy before it. A 2015 Subaru Legacy wheel bearing order uses two brand new numbers, with nothing shared with the older body at either end. Anyone ordering from an old invoice on this car should double check both numbers rather than assume either carried forward.

This page covers the 2015-2018 Subaru Legacy: 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018. Other years live on the main Subaru Legacy wheel bearing page.
The prior two Legacy bodies kept the same front hub, 513220, for about ten years between them. That run ends here, replaced by 513302.
The rear hub also moves on, from 512401 to 512536. A 2015 Subaru Legacy wheel bearing order should not reuse either older number.
Confirming the year of the body, not just the trim level, is the fastest way to avoid ordering an outdated part.
Year by year
2015 through 2018 share one front and one rear number for the whole run. No individual year splits either row.
A 2015 Subaru Legacy wheel bearing order is the same job at any point in the run: front 513302, rear 512536.
That consistency holds across every trim sold on this generation.
The end of a long-running front number
The 513220 front hub spanned the 2005-2009 Legacy and the 2010-2014 Legacy before this body. That streak stops here.
513302 and 512536 are both specific to this 2015-2018 generation, with no documented carryover from either earlier body.
That makes the year index straightforward here: any 2015 through 2018 Legacy uses the same two numbers.
Diagnosing a 2015-2018 Subaru Legacy wheel bearing
- Confirm the end first. Front hubs use 513302, rear hubs use 512536, and neither changes by trim on this generation.
- Jack up the wheel and check for play. Looseness in the hub points to replacement. See how to check a wheel bearing.
- Listen for a hum that changes with turns. A bearing that gets louder in one direction is a common early sign. See wheel bearing noise in turns.
- Watch the ABS light along with the noise. A wearing hub can trip the light through its sensor. See a bad bearing and the ABS light.
- Rule out tire wear before ordering. Uneven tread can mimic a bearing hum at speed. See tire noise or wheel bearing.
