What is tightening the wheel lug nuts all about?

Whenever a car’s wheel has been taken off, it should be replaced and the lug nuts properly tightened. By properly, we mean with a torque wrench that tightens the nuts to the manufacturer’s specification. Many workshops simply use air wrenches that frequently over tighten the lug nuts. This is potentially dangerous and destructive, because it can damage the wheel, stud and lug nut, as well as warp the disc brake rotor.

Keep in mind:

Every car has a recommended torque figure for the lug nuts.
There is a sequence best followed for tightening the lug nuts.
Any kind of grease or anti-seize compound should not be applied to the threads
Even without a wheel removal, it’s advisable to check the lug nuts from time to time.

How it's done:

The vehicle is raised and supported on jack stands
The wheels are installed and the lug nut installed by hand then only tightened enough to hold the wheel snugly
The vehicle is lowered off of the jack stands till the wheel just touches the ground and torque the lug nuts to specifications in a star pattern
The vehicle completely lowered to the ground and completed till all wheels are done

Our recommendation:

Have your wheels checked at every routine maintenance service, and ask the mechanic to make sure the correct torque levels are being observed.

What is a common symptom indicating you need to tighten the wheel lug nuts?

Clunking or rattling sound from the wheels.

How important is this service?

Since there is a danger of wheels coming off or of damage being done to the wheels or their attachment studs, you need to be sure that the correct procedure for tightening the wheel lug nuts has been followed for your vehicle. If there's any doubt, get an inspection from one of our expert mechanics as soon as possible.

BMW 328i L6-3.0L - Coolant is leaking - Clermont, Florida

I read all the reviews before I scheduled my appointment because I was so skeptical. Every review was so positive. I could not find anything negative so I gave it a shot. Oh wow!! all reviews are true!!!! My appointment with Keith was exceptional! If I could rate higher I would. Keith was on time, professional and has a passion for what he does. He really knows his stuff about cars. I felt comfortable with everything he pointed out with my car. I KNOW my car will run like new once he is done with it. I truly trust this mechanic because he is very transparent. There are no hidden fees or motives. I have already recommended him to family and friends who were at a dead end with a honest mechanic. Keith is honest and the price is right! Kudos to Keith. He is now my family mechanic!!!
