i have a y reg vauxhall vectra the drivers rear side has a puncture i have jacked it up and released the 5 nuts but the wheel will not come off do i need to release the handbreak or is there any other reason why the wheel is not coming off
if the wheel is free to rotate i.e. clear of the ground , it may be sticking due to rust on the the flanged inner bore of the wheel where it sits on the hub. suggest you give it a kick.
