--So im driving the other night and as im about to park my car i hear a noise coming from my wheel but i didnt know what it was...i park my car for 2 min and start driving down the road no more than 15mph...so the noise sounds bad so i pull over and look and 3 of my wheel studs from my passenger side wheel are snapped off...i have no idea how this hapened...my dad is saying my car rides so rough from my coilovers that it caused it to snap...but i dont get why they all didnt just snap...im gonna get it fixed tommorw i just dont want it to happen again....any ideas?


-- I also noticed when i step on my brake pedal really hard my brake padal shakes a bit..any ideas to why it does that? do i need to bleed them?


Thanks

 

woaaaa.....i kno that brake pedal shaking thing,not from a maxima though.

 

you got warped rotors, from your wheels flopping around like that.

 

you may have over torqued the lugnuts and thats what may have caused the studs to break off. also when youre braking, does the steering wheel shake as well? if it does, the rotors are warped which commonly occurs in maximas. you can have them resurfaced for not that much money but you will also need to replace the pads.

 

I had them resurfaced in july and got all new pads..and new rear calipers

 

what is the proper ft lbs that the lugs need to be tourqed to?

 

i think it's about 80 ft-lb.
