Anchor - Stake?

Tomaitoo - Tomato?

Potaitoo - Potato?

I was gonna get new 'Anchor' for each and fix next week, may try for Saturday, brakes, pipes, torque spanner action. Quite exciting really.

Thanks for the size Honpar, don't think I've got anything that big, so new socket too. Na I'll borrow one!

Will do a blow by blow for anyone interested.

Be careful unstaking the old nut and save yourself a few quids.

I too had a constant click click click for a week or so. Dealer said they needed car for 2 days to diagnose the problem (Yeah -as if! - it was sunny!)

I took the wheel off and cleaned the hub flange and the mating surface on the wheel (Read this somewhere in another thread) Noise completely gone.

There is dispute on the US side about the nut being Use Once only.

I've heard of this before on a staked torque fitting that it's tensile changes and shouldn't be reused. For
