I was amazed by how fast it walked itself off the lugs when I tried to
apply any torque.  The whole hexagonal end seemed to have a slight twist
to it.

When I could barely even get the spare tire support bolt out with the VW
wrench, I decided it was time to buy a good metric four-way.  I tossed the
VW tubular wrench in the garbage, where it belongs.
