Vw_owner 1 Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 F/T is the only torque setting you will ever need on a vr haha old skool method, i like!, yea the front wheel bearings a sealed cartridge bearing and cant be overtightend unlike the rear wheel bearing which is tapper roller,so just do it FT, with the car on the ground,handbrake up and ingear with the centre cap of the wheel removed for maximum torque ,just bear in mind that some hub nuts are only to be used once, if your nut has no ny-loc plastic ring then once its undone your not supposed to re use it, i think its down to metal bits in the thread that stop it from comming loose getting torn off once its been undone, Link to post Share on other sites
