Hi I am a newish owner of a 2013 Impreza WRX sti. Been loving it ! Have an issue now though. The old battery gave up the ghost over Christmas/New Year. At that time I accessed the car by using the key in the driver’s door. Replaced it with a new one but the moment we connect it up, the alarm sounds. The neither key fob turns it off (have replaced their batteries and checked they are working). I have tried putting into the keypad the number we were given as the PIN and have also tried puttin

This era of hub design does not have an installed bearing on hub option . Just buy a proper quality bearing kit such as KOYO NTN etc, if super tight budget you could go BluePrint bearing via Carparts in Motion (20% off until 2nd of feb so bearing kit is like £18.65) https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/317689424380 You can do these on car using bearing removal/install kits such as linked below . https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/397362941519 Use these bearing kits with some sense and they can do the job, can struggle removing a real old rusted in bearing without the likes of a proper long barrel air hammer assist getting it moving . You going want lateral link bushes and bolt too on these unless you blessed with fresh import or one that had recent work done involving these parts. Subaru genuine bush and bolt kit is cheap ... Be careful buying parts off eBay as lot of the more off brand and no name parts are total junk and don't last or fit/function well . It hard enough buying quality these days from well known brands and even oem/original is not what it was decade or 2 ago . In the Automotive repair world good parts knowledge has become a must as using whatever !Removed! comes easy and cheap works out real bad ... -
You could also try EuroCarParts for complete hub assembly -
Thanks for that mate i have looked on ebay seems they only do just the bearing that needs pressing in so was hoping for full hub -
Mostly eBay are a good source as you can match the selection of parts to your car
