Duh! Smart idea thanks :idea:

What would u say tightening to 25nm feels like?? I'm fitting a downpipe to my 2002 s3 (f-Ing pig of a job) and I can't get a socket on one of the nuts, what would 25nm feel like with a spanner??

:thumbs up: Phew, thanks for that

If i remove the inner joint of the driveshaft I can remove the drive shaft leaving whats left of the outer CV joint in place. Will i be able to drive the car back to my house with only the n/s driveshaft attached? the outer joint will still be attached to the hub but no link to diff. This will...
