I was also wondering if I should have a local shop properly tighten the wheels back on rather than doing it manually as I do not have any heavy-duty air tools?

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

8 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I am obviously new to this! If I manually take my wheels off, what is the proper way to put them back on i.e. tightening 1 bolt and then the opposite bolt, etc? Do I tighten all the way, drive 100 miles, and then re-tighten? I was also wondering if I should have a local shop properly tighten the wheels back on rather than doing it manually as I do not have any heavy-duty air tools? Thanks in advance.

POST 2Original post

No air tool needed just a Torque wrench. Torque wheel lugs to 96 ft lbs in a star pattern and recheck from time to time.

POST 3Original post

nice to have a couple of these: http://e-partssales.com/Merchant2/me...Code=POTE996WH

POST 4Original post

don't tighten each one by one. do all of the incrementally from one to the other.

POST 5Original post

1. Tighten each bolt (cross wise pattern) hand tight while the wheel is the air. 2. Set the car down and tighten each to 96 ft-lbs (cross wise pattern). 3. Enjoy. Air tools aren't required, but a torque wrench is to ensure you have the proper torque.

POST 7Original post

+1 on all the above info. Always hand start every bolt to minimize any cross threading.

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

This is all very helpful - thanks everyone for the tips.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
