Can someone please tell me the size of the socket required to remove the wheel nuts on the Mulsanne S?

Car is in the paint shop away from me and Google hasn't been my friend! Thanks and regards, Carl

Is there not a socket in the tool kit? The short lever will help stop over tightening. Should be in the boot below rear parcel shelf.

Remind them that the left hand side has reverse threads.

Top of the nut direction =
To rear to remove.
To front to fasten.

I'll look on my socket when I'm in the workshop.

Thanks for the reply. Yes, socket in the tool kit, but it's 30km and 2 weeks from me, I'm just ordering tools today that I'll use in the shop when working on the car.

LH/RH thread already noted.

Thanks for looking.
