Re: [DML] Re: Transmission Shaft Nut Hole



It's a large nut and the shaft has a flat that it supposed to have the 
flange of the nut tapped into it. I guess they forgot to do it at the 
(Renault) factory.

Let's be clear here - it's a known, but very rare problem - probably 
similar statistics to drivers side torsion bar failures I'd reckon. And 
none of us really lose any sleep over them do we?
