Used wheel hubs vary between vehicles - and whether you call it used, second hand or a replacement, matching the right one matters. These are the details breakers need to match the right part to your car - our request form asks them so you only hear from suppliers with the correct part:
The Accent ran in two main generations in the UK: the first generation (LC) covered roughly 2000 to 2005, and the second generation (MC) ran from 2006 to 2011. Wheel hubs are generation-specific running gear, so parts from the LC and MC generations are not interchangeable. Always give your registration to the breaker so they can confirm the exact generation before ordering.
2005 falls in the LC generation (2000–2005) and 2006 sits in the MC generation (2006–2011), so these sit either side of a generation boundary. The hub design changed between these generations, making a straight swap unlikely, but confirm against your registration with the breaker as they can check the specific part numbers involved.
Yes, engine size can matter because larger-engined variants sometimes carry bigger brakes, which can mean a different hub assembly. If you are replacing a hub on a 1.6 car, don't assume a hub pulled from a 1.3 will match without checking. Tell the breaker your exact engine size alongside your registration to make sure you get the right part.
Trim level alone — whether CDX, GSi, or any other badge — does not determine hub fitment; it is the generation and engine size that matter here. That said, different trim levels may have had different brake specifications depending on the engine fitted, so the engine size is still worth confirming with the breaker. You may also receive a hub from a different trim with no fitment concern, though minor cosmetic differences around the assembly are possible.
Front wheel hubs on the Accent are generally symmetrical side to side, unlike wishbones or driveshafts, so NS (nearside/passenger) and OS (offside/driver) fronts typically interchange. Rear hubs can differ depending on whether the car has a drum or disc setup, so confirm the axle and side with the breaker when ordering. Always double-check with your breaker against your registration rather than assuming.
Generation and engine size are the key fitment factors, so a same-generation, same-engine hub is the right starting point regardless of mileage. UK breakers will typically advise on the condition of the bearing and any wear, so it is worth asking specifically about hub and bearing wear before agreeing a price. The breaker should be able to confirm the part matches your registration before dispatch.
