Used Fiat Bravo Wheel Hub

The Fiat Bravo covered here is the second-generation model, produced from 2007 to 2016, with a facelift arriving around 2010; this is a separate car from the original Mk1 Bravo of 1995–2001, and hubs from that earlier car will not fit. Within the 2007–2016 generation the hub design is broadly shared, but engine size can influence brake and hub assembly dimensions, so always quote your exact engine when asking a breaker for a price.

The 2009 car sits in the pre-facelift phase and the 2012 in the post-facelift phase of the same 2007–2016 generation, so the basic architecture is the same. However, because the facelift period around 2010 is a known boundary, whether the hub assembly itself is interchangeable across that point is something you should confirm with the breaker against your registration number before buying.

Yes, engine size is worth checking because larger or more powerful engines are often paired with bigger brake assemblies, and the hub must match that brake setup. When you contact a breaker, give them your exact engine code or CC — for example 1.4, 1.6, 1.9 JTD, or 2.0 — rather than just the model name, to make sure the hub and any integrated bearing or ABS ring are the right size.

Trim level alone does not determine hub fitment — the Active, Dynamic, and Sport badges primarily reflect interior and equipment differences rather than changes to running gear. What does matter is the engine size fitted to whichever trim car the hub is coming from, so focus on matching that rather than the trim name. Do be aware that a hub sourced from a different trim car may arrive with minor cosmetic differences, such as a different dust cap or sensor ring colour, which should not affect function.

Yes, always specify nearside (NS, passenger side) or offside (OS, driver side) when you request a quote, as front hubs in particular can differ in geometry or ABS sensor orientation depending on the side. A good breaker will ask you this automatically, but confirming it upfront avoids any mix-up and saves time on returns.

Wheel hub replacement typically involves pressing bearings, torquing a large hub nut to a precise figure, and recalibrating ABS sensors, so it is a job most home mechanics would send to a garage or a specialist. Findapart can help you source the right used part at a competitive price from a UK breaker, but fitting is a separate matter and we would always recommend having the work checked by a qualified technician.
