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.

Volkswagen Routan V6-4.0L - Transmission Fluid Service - Albuquerque, New Mexico

Augustine was excellent! I'm a woman who is somewhat versed with the mechanics of the car. I know enough to know when I'm getting bamboozled. Well, after taking my car into the dealership and having them tell me I would have to pay $5,000 for a whole new transmission when my car only has 42,000 miles on it I called this company. It was refreshing to actually talk to Augustine instead of someone just speaking to me. When he first came here, right away he informed me that the quote will be less because he found some parts that are of the same value but for less money. He was very thorough and extremely courteous. Answered all my questions and finished the work in a very professional manner. Oh, one thing I forgot to mention is that he noticed I was running really low on power steering fluid and told me which kind to pick up. Very thoughtful of him!
