Can confirm from experience that they are 36mm, the problem is then the size of the bit. Thanks to the design with the nut in the middle of a protruding metal circle, too thick of a bit will not fit, so be careful with that. I ordered a Draper impact bit and it was too thick FYI. I can't remember who made the bit that did eventually fit, sorry :(

Good luck (y)
 
I'm 99% sure the front nuts are 36mm on the 3 door, 5 door and Multiwagon.

But the size of the nut on the rear of a 2004 Multiwagon is 32mm, not sure about the 3 and 5 door versions but I'd expect it to be the same.

Here's a couple of photo's of a 2004 Multiwagon rear stub shaft with nut and washers. Popped a 32mm socket on it just to check.

According to what I have wrote down and I can't even remember where I got this from lol front is 7daNm + 62 degrees rear is 25 daNm. That's for the 1.6 though, I don't know if the rest are the same...

Edit: don't think I even have a 32mm bit, how did I get my rear off :confused:
