Maximum permissible axial play of the rear wheel hub: 0.05 mm
3. If the axial play exceeds the maximum allowable value, tighten the hub fastening nut to 172 Nm and re-measure the axial play.
4. If the re-measured backlash exceeds the maximum allowable value, replace the rear wheel hub together with the bearing.
