Replace the front wheel bearing?

Hi,

I'm getting the error Chassis stabilization: Drive moderately on my F30 328i 2013 lately. The car has around 120k kms (75k miles).

ISTA report this error: 4809CB Wheel speed sensor: increment wheel front right and tells me to replace the wheel bearing front right.

I have replaced the speed sensor for the Parking Assistant (5DP) retrofit. I have over tighten the holding screw when doing so. Could it have affected the wheel bearing?

Thanks,
Alain

I doubt that the wheel bearing would be affected by over tightening a speed sensor screw...is there any play in the front right wheel? is there a chance that the sensor broke off inside the bearing assembly. they are typically sealed units so even that is a long shot.

curious to know what this is?

I got the same error in my 2018 340I not to long ago, about 2 weeks. Now when I took it to service they did end up replacing the bearing if that helps.

I haven't noticed any play. Will check.

The sensor did not broke off but did rub inside the assembly. The sensor tip is scratched.

I'm having it checked tomorrow. Will report.

Front wheel bearing replaced!

Well, it appears that rust has formed into the wheel bearing and replacing it ($$) fixed the issue.
