Hi,
One of the rear wheel bearings is getting rather noisy on my mk6 (drum brakes on back). How long can changing it wait before it gets dangerous??
Last time I had the drums off, I had to get a garage to torque up the hub nuts (the strange caged-stack affair) because the specified torque was something high (147 lbf IIRC), and my torque wrench doesn't go that high. Does this need to be exact, or would a good (scientific) heave on a long bar be OK?
Cheers,
Iain
