I just had 3 front driver's side lug-studs replaced at an authorized dealer (who broke them in the first place). I notice driving home today that the car can't hold an even arc when in a gradual relitively high-speed turn. The steering seems to "flop" from side to side... it's inconsistent. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

 

Alignment?

 

nah, i know what that feels like... this feels like something's loose. I just wondered if the work I had done would have any connection to linkage, or steering in general.

 

my intuition says check spindle nut and retorque it down and retorque the lugnuts.

 

Thanks. Any idea what the spindle nut should be torqued to?

 

helms says 242 ft-lbs. yikes.

 

whoa. that shouldn't have loosened. I'll check it out. Thanks again.
