Good evening. Are you able to advise please what a reasonable time could be to allocate to the replacement of a front wheel bearing on our 2013 Skoda Yeti? We have been quoted a price of about $450 for the part (the same price as for a manufacturers part - which would have to come from Singapore - but from an alternative supplier) and $700 to $800 for the overall job including labour. This seems like it might be quite a long time for the work required.

Hi there,
It may be best to check with a Skoda dealer just incase there are any hidden tricks. But from looking at the part which is a 3 bolt hub sealed unit with flange, I would think it would take no more than 1.5 hours max to replace.
