I could not reach the archives.

Inspection is due this month so I'm checking the front
brakes and I have pads if I need them, but it looks
like the rotors could stand to be turned or replaced
if I'm putting new pads on.  Not having the
Bentley-advised VW 637/2 tool, how do normal humans
get the grease cap off?  Nothing I tried worked.

Of course, when they installed the wheels last time
they tightened the lugs enough to require me to break
out the old Triumph motorcycle fork tube cheater bar I
keep in the basement.  Glad I discovered this before a
flat caught me away from home.

By chance, my neighbor was installing new struts on
his early '90s Nissan Maxima and I found the nice 15X7
alloy wheel bolts right on (front at least), though it
looks like the front bolts could stand to be about
1/4-3/8" longer for safe engagement.

While I'm at it, if you have helpful hints for the
rear brakes, speak now.  Thanks!

Stephen
