Default Hub nut size for Audi 80 1995

I'm replacing the rear discs and a caliper at the weekend on my 1995 audi 80 2.6.

Just want to know the hub nut size so i can make sure i'm fully prepared.

Thanks

Ashley

Default RE: Hub nut size for Audi 80 1995

If it's a front wheel drive, no socket needed. Easy to remove with slip joint pliers. Unless they have done some drastic changes.

Besides which, again, unless they have made drastic changes I'm unaware of, the discs are not part of the hub assembly. Completely seperate. One reason it's such a PITA changing tires, the holes in hub and disc go out of line.

When you reassemble, the specs for older cars, at least, tell you that you should be able to move the washer under the nut with a screwdriver, just pushing, not using it as a prybar against the cap fit. Remember to spin the wheel both ways to seat the bearings as you tighten.

Cheers,

George
