Raise the rear of the car and place on stands. Remove wheel cover.
Remove the hub cap and unpin the hub nut.
Turning the wheel, tighten the hub nut to a torque of 2.5 kgf·m.
Slightly unscrew the hub nut so that you can insert the lock washer with a screwdriver by simply pressing your finger without applying significant force. In this case, it is forbidden to rest the screwdriver on the hub. If the hole for the cotter pin does not line up with the slot in the nut, tighten the slotted nut until the hole is aligned with the nearest slot in the nut.
Again, check that the lock washer can move freely.
If the lock washer is tight, unscrew the nut to the nearest slot in the nut.
Pin the hub nut.
Reinstall the hub cap and wheel cap.
