OH MY GOD DAMN FREAKING GOD


so i noticed a bit of a scraping/knocking sound coming from my right front wheel....went to have a looksie.....got the car jacked up, wobbled the wheel and it had a little bit of a lose-ish feel to it. Wheel bearing is messed up, i already knew ahead of time from the sound it makes while driving....

Took the whole mess apart and when I got to the wheel nut I could loosen the thing BY HAND


I almost fell over backwards!!!!!!!!!!!1


that son a gun should have 137 ft/lbs torque on it WHAT THE SCREWY HELL??


I'm raising hell tomorrow at the dealer where they installed it last!

lesson to be learned: get these sorts of things done at the shop, have a very close look at it yourself after!
