# Service bulletin LI35.30\-P\-058566 A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned. - Type: Service bulletin - NHTSA id: 11013332 - Published by NHTSA: 2025\-01\-31 - Manufacturer's number: LI35.30\-P\-058566 - Manufacturer's date: 2025\-01\-15 - NHTSA component: POWER TRAIN ## NHTSA's summary Complaint Single throttle lift\-off clunking noise from the side shaft when moving off \(audible at the outboard end\). The noise is heard once in each instance when changing direction of travel. Note: Sound file in attachment Cause If the complaint is eliminated by experimentally loosening the outboard collar nut \(by 1 turn\), the problem is due to cracking of the microweld between the wheel bearing inner race and the joint housing of the side shaft. Note: The collar nut must always be replaced after being loosened. See also LI33.20\-P\-078406 Remedy Coat contact surface of side shaft with wheel bearing with Molykote paint. To do this, proceed as follows: 1. Remove side shafts 2. Clean contact surface A \(see image file in attachment "Outer joint housing before"\) before coating with Molykote, using "spirit" \(free of dust and grease\) 3. Coat contact surface A \(see image file in attachment "Outer joint housing after"\) with Molykote and leave to dry for "one hour" in removed condition 4. Reinstall side shafts Note: Before using the antifriction coating \(Molykote\), stir it or shake it thoroughly for \(at least 1 minute\). ## The document - [NHTSA's copy of the document (PDF)](https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2025/MC-11013332-0001.pdf) - [If that address does not open, try this one](https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2025/MC-11013332-9999.pdf) The document is the manufacturer's.
