Decent guy on another forum has x2 snapped wheel bolts (heaven knows how )
on his Insignia and it could save him loads if he knew where he could take
it to have the broken studs professionally removed - rather than be at the
mercy of 4 Lane Ends KrapFit where there's talk of new hub and labour to fit.
Apparently whilst driving he felt the passenger side front wheel go loose...
I know he's a Vauxhall driver and all that but would any of you guys in the
NE know a reliable machine shop/garage etc to recommend to help a fellow
(but non DIY) geordie? Years since I've been in Newcastle sadly.
Hub broken stud removal - Newcastle?

Ooops.

Oddly enough I bought my GS from Four Lane Ends, a hop skip and a jump from KwikSpit.
I did used to work around there but never required the aid of a mechanical workshop and haven't ventured up there for years other than to the hospital.
I don't suppose that he is able to drive it more than a mile or so?
I think Mike (Superloopy) or Newcastle Falcon would be more aware of somewhere that could fix him up in that area.
