5 Clean any rust or dirt from the contact
surfaces between the wheel and brake
disc. Do not wipe away the grease in the
hub.
6 Fit the wheel and screw in the bolts in the
sequence shown (opposite pairs) - see
page 242.
Tighten the bolts enough for the bolts
and wheel to be seated correctly.
7 Lower the car and tighten the wheel
bolts to the correct torque in the
sequence shown (opposite
pairs).Replace the wheel bolt caps.
Tightening torque
Light-alloy wheels: 80 ft.lbs. (110 Nm)
Steel wheels: 80 ft.lbs. (110 Nm).
Lubricate the wheel stud head with a
small amount of petroleum jelly or simi-
lar and reinstall the plastic covers on the
wheel studs. The petroleum jelly facilita-
tes removal.
NOTE
• When refitting wheel covers (where
applicable), make sure that the valve
protrudes through the marked hole in
the wheel cover.
• Do not overtighten the bolts using an
impact wrench: not only can this
damage the wheels but it can also
make it impossible to undo the bolts
using the wheel wrench in the car’s
toolkit.
