Anton, it's very rare il sit through a vid like this, i usually skip through to get the main points then crack on with the job (do blokes really read the assembly instructions😆), but I sat and watched every minute of this mate! Very engaging, clear and informative. Superb. 10/10.

Hi there, it seems like the socket you are using to remove the hub nut in this video is not of the Cr-Mo heavy duty type that you link to, but rather a standard (Chrome-Vanadium?) 12-point socket. Also, the wall thickness of the socket seems thinner than the heavy duty one. Can you specify what socket you used in this video? Is it OK to use for this purpose, with a slight safety margin? Torque rating?

The one in the link is better for this job the one I used is just an old Britool one in my tool box, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
@inkog11668 ай бұрын
But obviously good enough, even with an impact tool, and torque probably well above 400Nm when undoing the nut. Why go for a Rolls Royce when a Vauxhall will do the job?😊

I followed your video 3 years ago with the washer hack and it worked a treat. I am now getting glitchy traction control again and I think I need to do this fix. That clip of you getting the drive shaft nut off is anxiety triggering! Did you try a thicker washer before going for the ring replacement?

Milwaukee does a 12ah battery (quite expensive). Any idea if this will give more power to the impact gun compared with the 5ah battery? I'm inspired by your drive and determination to overcome obstacles to get the job done. Thank you.
@aaanton112 жыл бұрын
The 12ah battery will for sure deliver a more stable power, the one I switched to was a fully charged 3ah high power battery which is supposed to be as good as a normal 6ah battery😂 the 12ah is a big lump, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠

Hi. If getting garage to replace reluctor ring.. is it just easier for them to fit a new shaft instead? Rather than refurb it then add new ring? I dont have all tools to do myself. So refurb will be labour cost but it might be same cost as getting new? I would need 318i se 2.0 for 2011 plate. Both rear shafts. I have no idea of brands and what are approved bmw parts. Ivr seen new shafts as low as 50 quid and up to 225. Obviously i want cheap as possible but good quality. Max i want to spend on each shaft is 110 if possible. Any recommendations on a drive shaft brand from anyone? Also will it come with ring? Thanks

What happens if you don't paint the rust that's been converted? Does it just rust again? Why doesn't the gooped on converter damage the ring or interfere? I'd worry about putting on the ring until all the rust converter is complete, but not sure.
