    Hello, I have a problem with unscrewing the wheel hub (I do not know any other method to replace the articulation covers) I tried several times to spray the WD-40 with the wrench used to unscrew the wheels in trucks (over 1m long), then a friend suggested to extend the key with a 4m long metal pipe :) , also unsuccessfully the pipe could swing like a swing, but the hub nut did not move, even a pneumatic wrench did not help. I have no ideas how to unscrew it.

    Heat with the burner. And check if you are really shooting in the right direction ... ;) Of course, you also took the protection off the nut ... ;)

    Interestingly, there was no security ;) , but from what I know, I should unscrew it to the left? What do you think, colleagues, heating with an electric heat gun alone is enough, because temporarily I don't have access to the burner?

    The heat gun won't do anything. Check the service manual for your car, what the manufacturer is a different idea, maybe it is unscrewed to the right.

    Or maybe a colleague would give the make and model of the car?

    Sorry, I forgot. It is a VW Golf II.

    Burner and burner only.

    Stroke and stroke only. A powerful air wrench will finish the topic. The cost is a few zlotys for a mechanic at the nearest decent service point.

    It is also possible without impact, without a burner, and without a 4-meter pipe. If you don't know how to go to a mechanic.

    The pipe must be stiff, otherwise the energy goes into bending it rather than loosening the screw.
    For this switched on the engine, brake in the floor and you can unscrew.

    Obviously a very helpful user. Wimpy kid like little of them :D
    Try to get the burner, maybe then you will succeed. :)

    Disassemble the nut, the rest will survive.

    As long as the propeller is not spinning, no energy is needed to move it. Strength is needed and the bending of the pipe is not very much influenced, as long as the bending pipe is not hammered by anyone to move the screw.

    Why no one will suggest that the bolt or nut should be properly hit from the forehead. But so with the element. There is no strength for that.

    A mallet and a hammer are enough for you.

    Alternatively, grind the side of the nut (so as not to damage the thread) and then a hammer and chisel.

    And did you try to stir her? tube with the diameter of the nut and hit it with all its might. 100% drops

    A good socket wrench and keel hammer must go. I suppose you unscrewed the wrong way and tightened to the max.

    It is worth adding that some manufacturers use nuts with a left thread on the left wheel and a right thread on the right wheel. So that it does not let go while driving.

    Don't get faster, this is VW.

    What about unscrewed? Then there will be a philosophy of how to remove the joint from the driveshaft :D

    A good socket wrench must be rigid - there is no miracle that it would not work.

    And so many posts about one bolt. Wrench and pipe, either you break the wrench or release the screw. If you break the key, the burner remains. It has never happened to me that a screw resists the burner

    What about the burner? It heats the screws that you do not want to break - this one will not break for sure. Condition - the wrench must be more massive than her, with standard 1/2 "sockets good luck.

    It heats up so that a phenomenon such as thermal expansion occurs.

    Where is 4m. fear god pipes, fasten a decent wrench up to a meter full and with vigor.

    And damage to the hub, bearing, etc. Sure, cool.

    Or come to me in Żywiec during the break between the grill and 0.5 l, we'll do it, because I'm bored today :)

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around the challenge of unscrewing a wheel hub nut on a VW Golf II. The user has attempted various methods, including using WD-40, a long wrench, and a pneumatic wrench, but has been unsuccessful. Suggestions from other users include applying heat with a burner or heat gun, checking the direction of unscrewing, and using a more powerful air wrench. Some users recommend mechanical assistance or using a hammer and chisel to break the nut. There are also warnings about the possibility of left-threaded nuts on certain wheels. Alternative methods discussed include welding a rod to the nut for leverage and soaking the nut in kerosene for better results.
