Wheel Lug Stud Replacement

How are wheel stud issues diagnosed?

Any time the wheel is inspected or removed, the studs should be checked. Check the back of the hub to ensure the heads of the studs are in good condition.

How is a wheel stud replaced?

On brake rotors with hub assemblies attached, the wheel, brake caliper, its mounting bracket, and rotor assembly would have to be removed before replacing the studs. For sealed wheel bearing and hub assemblies, the wheel, axle nut, brake caliper, brake caliper mounting bracket, brake rotor and CV axle are removed. This provides clearance to remove the hub assembly and replace the wheel studs.

RepairPal recommendations for wheel stud issues

We recommend using OEM or better wheel studs. Wheel studs should be tightened exactly to manufacturer specification every time they are tightened.

Can I replace the wheel stud myself?

This is a doable project for an experienced DIYer, but it does involve lifting the car and removing a good number of braking parts. But no specialty tools are required. If you can't get the car lifted safely, a repair shop can handle this job.
