[Steelwheel]

I have a Oldsmobile Intrigue FWD with a bad wheel hub on the front left. It is noisy and has some vibration, but still drives fine. From what I can tell, it went bad too fast because the wheel hub/cv axle nut was over-tightened.

Now, I can change the hub myself, and have the tools and part. However, the nut is so tight, I need a shop to loosen it.

I was wondering if there were any major risks associated with doing that. If the nut is loosened and then re-tightened to spec, does that increase the chance of the wheel hub going out? I would just need to loosen it then drive a few miles back to my garage.

Thanks to all who respond.
