I have a 2003 jaguar x type 2.5 and i'm wondering what is the size of the cv axle nut, and is there any other vehicles that have the same size nut I can use?

 

Hi Joshua,

Welcome to the Jaguar Forums!

I have moved your post from the forum for the S-Type to the forum for the X-Type. Here you will find knowledgeable owners of similar cars.

Regarding the rear axle nuts, it is quite likely that the same size and type are used on other cars. If none of our members knows the correct size and type, it might be worth taking one of your old nuts to your local Ford dealer and asking if they carry a match.

It is important to note that, at least for the models I am familiar with, Jaguar states that the rear axle nuts must be used only once, and if removed for service, the old nut should be discarded and a new nut installed. I am aware of at least two Jaguar owners who reused the old nuts and had them come loose while driving their cars....

And since we're a friendly group, please visit the https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/n...-intro-must-5/ and post an introduction so we can learn something about you and your Jag and give you a proper welcome.

Cheers,

Don

 

Joshua: The part # of the rear hub nut is C2S46889. It requires a 32mm socket and is tighten to 270 Nm / 200 ft lbs. They go for ~$12 on eBay.
