when I change the rear brake pads on my clio?

Do I have to replace the hub nuts like it says in the manual ? Or can I use the ones I took off?
Many thanks .

1) apparently if you swap the nuts over L to R and the R to L the cleat bit (where the nut was staked )comes in a different place allowing second use of the nut.

2) I've seen the nuts reused on the same side but with a smear of THREAD LOCKING compound applied, then the nut restaked.
3)buy new nuts
your choice 1 or 2 or 3

no you dont need to change any nuts or bolts just remember to tighten to correct torque
