I sure will not be relying on your expertise for assistance in the future if it takes you three days to respond to my question.

I apologize for the inconvenience, the other online mechanics were probably waiting for me to answer this question considering that I own 15 of these Volkswagen vans. At any rate... due to the fact that I am an owner operator of "Quantum Mechanics" one of the most elite German repair shops on the whole earth, run by me and my wife working 15 hour days. We have just purchased a new house (10,000 ft.² ) that needs lots of work. I am currently in litigation with my ex-wife trying to get my four children, with the first visitation in seven years coming up this weekend. Me and my wife have callings in our church which takes up three days a week and I am the mechanic of the ward which keeps me plenty busy doing charity work for the members. the past couple of days I've been sleeping in the Shop because me and my wife are arguing about the children, and it goes on................. next time why don't you just get a tape measure and measure the bolt? and when you have a difficult question maybe I can find some time to help you.

I.am sure if I was as highly skill and proficient as you are as a mechanic I wouldn't have to even check the mechanic manual to find the size of socket required to remove this axle nut. your response just shows are arrogant you really are..
