Wheel bearing questions

On my s320, I was getting my insurance inspection done, and the right front wheel bearings were a little lose. The mechanic gave me 2 weeks to get that fixed. Now, is there a special grease that better to use, or is any lithium based wheel grease good enough??
Also, is a possible to repack the rear bearings which he said were fine, or do they just have to be replaced?? how hard is it to replace those bearings in the rear?? Is that a prevenititive maintenance job if there's no play, or should I wait till there is some play??
