Hi all ,i had my rear wheel oof my mk2 as i was changing the c & s , the wheel bearings seem to have a tad of play when the bike is raised etc ,are the bearing covers a flat disc with four holes in ( similar looking to something thats on an angle grinder) that unscrew ,or should there be bolts/screws holding this down ? and mine are all snapped !!!! or can i view a manual somewhere ? Many thx Rob

Sounds like punch and hammer time, [ oh oh oh hammer time :lol: ], unscrew the cover plate to reveal the bearing therein.
I don't think there's any clip as well, but check to make sure, or others with greater knowledge might comment.

I bought this tool when I did my Mk2 rear wheel bearings a couple of weeks ago, fits perfectly.

That'll do the job, sometimes one of the angle grinder tools will fit, but not always well.
Seals will probably be fuburded as well.
