Need to replace mine but found out it costs about £90 (best price). Can you just replace the wheel and bearing without having to replace the mechanism if so where from? Thanks in advance

All that messing about you may as well just do the tensioner. If you own a Pug replacing thing's like that is a regular thing that will happen a lot so moaning about £90 mean's you own the wrong car. Also I wouldn't fluff about with it because I have been told if the tensioner belt snaps it could flick across and take out the timing belt which believe is a lot more than 90 note's.

If they're press fit bearings and that's all that's needed then it would only be about £3 to replace but I can't be a**ed with that faff hence looking at about 15 for a wheel and bearing (not sure if I'm looking at right thing hence the query). If a component is ok and just needs a part replacing then there should be no issue with replacing parts provisig it doesn't compromise the part itself. Peugeots are ridiculous for part prices-wanted a seat stop the other day and would have had to buy most of the seat @ £160! I don't want to spend a fortune on what is a budget car especially as I'm getting rid of it as soon as possible
