Default loose nuts

I started to hear the clicking sounds from the drive train at low speed so I checked then replaced the axle nuts as directed by the TSB (new nuts, loctite etc). In addition to no more clicks I really feel that the drive train is tighter; maybe my imagination but the car drives so much better!

Bottom line: check your nuts, you will be glad you did!
