Generally they are 1 5/16" A/F (ie inch and five sixteenths) but I think some of the later cars changed to a smaller nut, possibly 1" A/F Edited by graemec on 28th Jun, 2010. |

'tis a handy socket to have - fits tower mounts and front hub nuts too (unless you have the later 34mm A/F ones). |

You can check the stock online now which is useful, it doesn't look like they stock it though. The staff in my local halfords are useless, one of them asked me if I knew what PAS stood for once!

A 3/4 whit spanner also fits that nut, which may or may not be relevant. |
