Tire rotation?

Torque specs for lug nuts

The torque specs are all in the manual. With all my different cars through the years, the manufacturers have always included the torque specs in the manual. All we have to do is read it. Admittedly, I have made the mistake of greasing the nuts before, since this was what was taught to me by my father. Now I know better.
There were two memorable instances i recall involving tire mechanics. One was when I bought tires from Tire Center. They used a pneumatic wrench. When I got home, I wanted to loosen it so that I can torque. It was so tight that I had to get the help of our fat househelp to step on the wrench & jump on it. Imagine doing it on 16 lug nuts. The other was when I suffered a flat & had it fixed in your friendly sidewalk vulcaniziing shop. When he loosened it, he felt that the nuts were too loose. Sanay kasi gumamit ng extension bar to tighten the nuts.

the listed torque specs are for dry unlubricated threads

father daw ni bloowolf when you use lube the friction lessens. so if you use the same torque value the actual pulling force on the lug stud increases

Me i dont use lube.. messy eh.. just make sure na malinis at walang oxidation yung studs.. pag may oxidation i put little oil and wipe it clean with cloth

Sabi sakin ng auto service shop na pinuntahan ko, kelangan ko daw i-pa wheel balancing after malipat yung dalwa sa unahan and vice versa?

Need to verify here first. kelangan nga ba?

i don't.
but if they offer to do it, absolutely free... why not!

[bloowolf]

unless may nararamdaman kang pag wiggle. Otherwise hindi kailangan yun.

I'd rather let them check it. In my case when I had the tires rotated, I requested to check four tires. One of them is no longer balanced, although by a small number only. So I doubt I'll ever feel it. However I'm not an automotive expert, so I can't tell at what number I'm still within the tolerable value.

Since I'm already there and it was found out that it isn't balanced, I had them do it.

Have it done. Minimal lang naman gastos yan.

I did mine between 10-15k km.
Ang issue ko naman is life span ng tire, 5-6yrs palit na rin at mostly hindi sya nauupod.

Pag FWD, harap lang nagpapalitan. Then, sa likod kasama ang spare tire sa rotation. Pag dating ng 60-75k, yung nasa likod naman ang lilipat sa harap. in that case, mas makapal lagi ang nasa harap kahit luma na mga gulong.

if the grease is within arm's reach, i would lubricate.

Yup, very minimal. kalahating patak lang ng FS oil ok na sa limang stud.

Then ok din sa front rotor surface at the back of stud circumference, minimal grease application naman lalo na at inaabot ng a year ang tire rotation ko.
