Should I lube the bearings?

Have a question for you do it your selfers? I'm replacing the pads and rotors (front and rear), should I pull the bearings and relube them? 2008 TT has 43000 miles and I don't know if they are permanately lubed and sealed. Thanks Dennis.

I'm about 99% sure that they are a sealed unit and don't need lube

VWAG uses bearings that are sealed and do not require service. In fact, pulling the bearings destroys them.
