Stripped wheel bolts

Featured Replies

Hi guys I’m after some advice to some stripped wheels bolts. My bosses 2011 Audi A5 has 4 stripped wheel bolts which are only just biting to hold the wheel on. It was noticed when he had an emergency tyre fitted. Now he has asked me to fix it for him! What are the chances of the thread in the hub being in an ok condition to re tap them? Or do you think a new hub is required? Also how hard is it to do a rear hub? Obviously I don’t want to take the wheel off if I’ve got no chance of getting it back on without a lot of work to do! Much appreciated for any feedback.

thanks 

Hard to advice to be honest like you say if you get the wheel off but not back on again your buggered it may pay to talk with tyre fitting place and go with their advice m8
