    My father and I are trying to replace the wheel bearing on my 2003 x-type. So far, we have taken off the caliper, rotor, and nut from the axle shaft. We bought a tool from an autoparts store to push the axle shaft back through the wheel bearing and wheel hub. What we are having trouble with is removing the hub from the knuckle. My question is, do we have to remove the entire wheel knuckle in order to remove the wheel hub? If we don't, how do we get the wheel hub out of the knuckle?

SOURCE: how to replace rear wheel bearing on s type jaguar v reg

pretty basic the same and any other wheel bearing. But you need a hydraulic press, if you dont have one of those then their is just no way that you will be able to do it.

If it is newer than an 05 you need to take it to the dealership, because they need to hook up their computer and electronically disengage the rear parking brakes by putting it into service mode.
