snapped wheel bolt

[stoneyfordNI]

as i was removing my alloys today one of the bolts on a rear wheel sheared off , i still have 3 bolts on and a locking one (4 in total) , wats the chances of anything bad happening running with a bolt out , as i can get no threads engaged on the damaged one

and does anyone know the price of a rear wheel hub , ibiza mk4 (disc brake)

Can't you get it drilled out rather than get a new hub? Its easier than it sounds with the right drill and bits.

I doub't that you are in imminent danger!

be quicker to just change the hub TBH , cant be that much work in it ,

Its happened to me before....a few times...if you get a small coal chizzle you should be able to tap it around as there is no tension on the threads. No need to take the hub off!

Pretty sure Toxxin replaced the rear hub on his old TDI with one from ECP, so it might be worth giving them a call.
