I realize I'm on a Porsche Board but I need some help. In switching to winter wheels/tires this evening I broke the pin that you use as a guide in mounting the wheels on the wheel hub on my wife's A4. Now I have the broken end of the pin where the 5th lug bolt should go. What's the consensus out there, will it be OK to drive the Audi, maybe 100 easy miles, until Friday and I can buy an easyout to remove the broken part of the pin?
Second question, has anyone tried to remove one of these broken pins, I assume it's no big deal to back it out, it only in finger tight? Thanks.
