- in this video I attempt to replace a broken front wheel stud on a 2014 Honda CRV Front wheel drive and learn that it is much more difficult on this vehicle than on many others.

I went through exactly the same process with my daughter's 2010 Fit. Cut the old stud out from behind with a zip disc, removed part of the heat shield (cold chisel). The tricky part was grinding just the right amount of a groove in the knuckle to get a better angle on the stud. Just enough to get the studpart way through the hub. The key was to grind a bevel on the end of the stud. Just enough for it to poke its way flush with the hub face. That's the sweet spot. It was a moderate pop with a hammer, and it slipped right in. Was able to line up the splines and pull it home with a stack of washers. If you go through Honda, it's more than a one hour minimum. They have to follow the shop manual, which means pulling the entire hub and putting it all back together. That turns a $2 job into a $400 dollar repair. Way to go Honda. Thanks for the share, I almost gave up also. Went as far as buying 2 studs in case I screwed up one .
Next time take the axle but off and get a slide hammer( you can rent them at auto zone for little to no money) and then give it a few pulls to move the hub enough out the way to put the stud in. You don’t need to remove hub completely and nothing else needs removed, when you’re done just put the axle nut back on and that should drive the hub back into the knuckle. Former Honda tech here
Thanks! I wondered if something like that might work but was concerned that the unit bearing would be damaged to some irreversible extent. Good thought though for sure.
How I ended up doing mine on my 16 HRV was cut a slit in the backing plate, bend it out the way, and use a grinder to shave a tiny bit of the knuckle off. It won’t hurt anything. Then grind down the head of the stud. Honestly just easier to take to a shop
One problem with slide hammers is that they can only work with 5 lug hubs. Small Honda cars still have 4 lug hubs so I'm not sure if there are slide hammers compatible with those hubs.
Also, I'm not sure how slide hammers avoid damaging the bearing.
Check out the video on my page Sexy a little bit easier and it won’t wreck your car I promise just gotta shave a little off the hub and boom. Done 😊. These shops I give up
@user-yk4oq4wz4d Nice trick! Using the slide hammer will not rock the bearing out of the hub? I am stuck in the same situation. Looking forward for your response.
Going through this right now for the second time. Costco just cross-threaded my stud when they put my new tires on. Any shop in town is going to cost me $350 to $450. I tried to do it myself the first time and got so frustrated and ended up having to take it to the shop anyways after I damaged my hub. What is expensive headache.
Totally as valuable finding out you can't do something as how to do it.
Did a wheel bolt replacement on a 200 Honda Pilot and its a very similar challenge. I cut away part of the dust shield, used my grinder to get the old stud off and cut enough of a new lane on the knuckle for the new bolt to go in with a new air rotary rasp/file.. I did also had to remove part of the head on the bolt so the bolt would angle in better. Had to use a thread file to clean up the threads after, but it worked pretty well. I used. Agreed, Honda should design an easier solution for this.
Excellent vid, well-done filming and good audio 👍🏽
If you turn the hub to the left, hammer down a tiny small part of the side of hub, it hammers right out. Cut a small 1/8” cut on the head of the stud and it pops right in. Takes 5 minutes and you don’t have to take any of it apart.
Hammer the hub? Not sure what you mean. Need to do same repair.
Just did this with my son. Went ahead and rebuilt the entire drive line. After pressing out the hub it it was "screw it, we're already there".
Man I admire you I ran into same issue today on my 2017 Honda crv
Thanks! I hope it works for you. For the record that CR-V of ours is still running solid after this repair.
Just happen to my 2017 CRV today. I saw another videos where people are shaving the lug nut stud to get it to fit, but hopefully it does not cost too much so I can have the a mechanic work on it instead.
Did a wheel bolt replacement on a 2003 Honda Minivan and its a very similar challenge. I cut away part of the dust shield, used my grinder to get the old stud off and cut enough of a new lane on the knuckle for the new bolt to go in. I did have to remove part of the head on the bolt so the bolt would angle in better. Honda should design an easier solution for this.
I thought about going that route as well, and I know many others have done similar. In the end this wasn't too bad and if i had my own press then it would have been even better/cheaper. You are correct, bad design for sure.

I had same issue with my Honda CR-V 2005 model. I watched your video and saw the roadblock you hit. But I found a way around it and saved myself a trip to mechanic and a few hundred dollars. The metal guard that was blocking you from inserting the lug nut can be easily bent. I hammered it with a rubber mallet to create an access to the hole and voila it’s done. Straighten the dent with a pliers and the metal guard it’s back to its normal shape.
Right but that's not his issue. He was able to loosen the three bolts for that guard, which is called a dust shield or rotor shield, and turn it so that that it's not obstructing the stud. His issue was the horrible knuckle design that doesn't allow full size studs to be installed/removed without either removing the hub or modifying the old and new studs.
@@aurvaroy6670 yep. If you want to half ass it you can grind the stud and cut the shield but that's a lot of work just to avoid doing it right.
Cut out the old stud, insert threaded rod (same size and thread pattern as original stud) through front and weld a nut on the back. Done.
@@bradleyriles3889 If anybody was "doing it right" it should have been Honda.By casting an access notch into the knuckle.Since they did'nt do it right,I did.I ground 1/8 inch from the edge of the knuckle.Cut a small half moon from the dust cover,1/4 of the stud head ground flat.It slid in easier than the old one came out.Sprayed the bare metal with chassis paint.My design and procedure has lasted 5 years so I would say I did it the right way.Easy,free and time saving.Not the vehicle's designer's way but the right way.
@@aurvaroy6670 the ‘knuckle’ he is referring to is part of the ‘dust shield’ there is no other structure there and it can be bent easily as I did. I did not see any other obstruction- at least in my model of Honda CRV.
Dang I'm having the same problem with 2012 crv. My worry is, do I need to use a press tool to return it if i pull out the whole hub assembly? My 201O odyssey was easier to replace for some reason. it has the slot to put it in.
have to remove bearing?
Y didnt u keep explaining without the music what size screw driver u used i cant get mine off or to turn
Hi can you please tell the size of tools you use
Deling with this right now on both sides. Most frustrating thing is I had it fixed before and now there is another broken stud and the other side has one too! Car belongs to a great nephew. Just trying to help! Totally understand your position though. Always balancing my confidence and tool ownership with level of difficulty. This will be another $300 if I don't do the work and I still have a soft brake pedal after someone put brakes on and A/C nor blowing cool air to deal with after I replace both driver side headlights! This may get expensive!!!
Man people just don’t wanna look before they start tearing shit apart
You just save my husband and me a headache and time.
Happy to hear it. Thanks for watching!
God damnit. Of course the hub has to come off. F
Had two studs stripped on the front,took to Honda dealership,$439.00.
you did not have to take apart the caliper; why couldn't you just have removed the bracket and the caliper along with it?
Habit I guess! Hahahaha. Thanks for watching.
I bet they cross threaded the lug by inserting it into the socket first and then powered it on the stud instead of first putting the lug on the stud a few turns then driving it home. Don’t ask me how I know. 😉
Agree 💯
All you needed was a pully to extract hub.. easy as 1, 2, 3.. adding bearing grease is standard..
😂😂😂 please , clearly you don't know
Shops are idiots they don’t know how to turn the impact gun down or threaded with hand to begin with and then blast it on do not just stick it into the end of the socket. Happens all the time. This is not the car to do it on I managed to find my little trick I put the video on my page not the best video but they work perfectly I actually did three on this CRV. Not easy but not that bad 😅. Great stuff
Todos los honda tienen un lado por donde se puede sacar y meter el perno solo es de encontrar el lado
Bro- invest in some cordless power tools!
same thing honda odyssey 2002
I was yelling at the screen the who time
All you you needed was a puller or come along take care
Funny how discount tire broke mine and just told me the same thing
Discount tire didn't profit or benefit from it at all so my suspicion there was relieved and I don't blame them at all. The same shop that cross threaded this one has sent 2 other cars home with loose or missing lug nuts. I don't go there anymore.
autoshop charged my dad $300 for this job
I'm sure they did. Most are about $140/hour labor these days. Thanks for visiting the channel.
15 minute job. Cut down broken stud bang it out. Cut off back stop on new stud bang in from front and put weld on back of stud. Job done.
Thanks!
Good idea.
Bad design honda!
Hand tools.☹️
Avoid Honda civics....Hub needs to come off. A real pain unlike in other car brands
Indeed. I have always been more or less a Honda fan, but recent models are impressing me less and less.
Yeah the old Hondas actually had an access hole to allow someone to replace the stud without removing the hub and/or replacing the bearing. Newers ones don't. Just one of the many bad designs made by Honda. They used to be innovative. Now they're either too experimental or catching up with Toyota
ATG & I can only say, And you thought Honda built good vehicles. Think again & it's too late you are the unproud owner.
It's usually a $411 to $600 jobs. Like trying to repair an oil leaks that very few know where it's coming from (Rear Crankshaft's Seal)
Most shops & videos may do /or show doing a complete Timing Belt Kit replacement.
But they don't replaced the Front Crankshaft's Seal and never touch the Rear Crankshaft's Seal.
Because just to replace a $15.00 seal will hit you over $1,000.00.
If you are plaining to buy a new Honda.
After 7 years of sooner, you will have Orange Peel on your car. All because they & the world have copied the USA's.
What? Ya don't like the enormously messy job that is packing bearings?
