Did mine recently, you get One Shot, Landrover make it, it comes in a ready measured bottle with a nib or sachet.
Drain the old stuff, with your wheel at full lock blast in the one shot. To get it to flow in better put it into a bath of boiling water for a while, I also found a small piece of tube pressed over the nib (I have the bottles) and then you can put that right into the swivel. Easy enough job.
Once its in its in, but I would top it up with a little oil.
If you have trouble getting the grease let me know.

Yeah but no listen right, the oil in the swivel housing lubricates the wheel bearings as well don't it?. So if you don't put enough grease in or the grease dosn't get to the bearings then the bearings might **** up.
'Course you can have some of what I've bin drinking, only you've gotta pay for it.

Must have put it in a good few thousand miles ago, everything going well, sorted the leak I had aswell. Regarding the grease quantity, it says 370grams.

Grunt ye old fella me lad,
The oil/grease in the swivels lubricates the swivels. The grease you pack in the hub bearings lubricates them. The hub seals keep them all apart; unless of course your hub seals work like mine and let all the oil past, allowing it into the drums and removing what little braking properties my S3 had.
500 grams = 1.1 lbs
