ardasaliah Posted October 14, 2006 Share Posted October 14, 2006 an anoying rattle has developed and it turned out to be the washers on the wheel nut. What I don't get is how they rattle when they are tight on:blink: Would it be OK just to remove them ? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
absz Posted October 14, 2006 Share Posted October 14, 2006 if its tight then it cannot rattle:d and do not remove the washer as its there for a reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kranz Posted October 14, 2006 Share Posted October 14, 2006 The washer stops the steel nut eating into the alloy. If its not tightening up then there's a problem, possibly its bottoming out on the threads before it reaches the washer? Are they the right nuts for the car & wheels??
