Ever since we've had the eSpace we've never been able to get the nearside rear wheel** off (the only one with tread!) due to two of the four bolts refusing to budge. Despite bouncing on a scaffold bar adapted wrench all we'd managed to do was snap two sockets! We'd tried repeatedly drenching the bolts in WD40 and still no joy. Enter Batman....
The team's newest recruit tried unsuccessfully with his tools and in the end suggested 'why don't we just drive it off the jack and see if that loosens it?'. So we did... and hey presto the bolts moved and off comes the wheel!
Funny, the Haines manual didn't have that procedure listed...

I think I might write to them and suggest they revise the manual :-)
