Yeh it seems stuck bolts and nuts is a common problem on DIY suspension work on the CX-5. So you could tell you had a bad bearing when you jacked up the wheel and turning with the noise? And did you replace only the bearing or the entire hub with bearing?
Pics or it didn't happen.
Yeah, happens all the time!
Yeah, I read that some plastic might be affected. At that time I did not have a choice (but that's why I was trying to use as little as possible) and unless something is wrong I should have no need to change the spark plugs on this car any time soon. For my CX-9 I think I am going to try a different kind of a spark plug socket or use a magnetic tool and repurpose this one (after removing this rubber insert) as a regular socket (I found that regular, deep sockets in my set are still slightly too short to use them with spark plugsYeah, happens all the time!
But don't use WD40 on it, it can attack rubber/plastic. Better to use silicone grease.
).Oh my, I would get a heart attack in a situation like this. Good for you for not loosing it completely.
For me it was that the extension kept popping off of the socket when I was trying to pull the plug out. Some tape fixed that problem.
That sucks. Sometimes the process of working in a wax/sealant will remove the water spots, unless they are etched in. In that case you need an acidic solution. This video just dropped the other day, which may be helpful.

I use to just use sandpaper but awhile back knowing I would do this I ordered wire brush wheels that attach to my drill. Such a difference, just got to manipulate the drill and different size wire wheels to get different angles. I'll post some pics later of the clean up using the wheels. After that and a lil sandpaper I just wiped it all down with a clean rag and water. Let it dry while I did other things around house/garage. I did not remove any of the calipers. Used 3 different size brushes and did multiple coats of red then sprayed on multiple coats of clear.
