I'm not very mechanically adept so I don't know how to fix it. Luckily I was able to finish the job with my 3/8" drive torque wrench and still squeeze in a backroads blast before our weekend chill. But I definitely prefer my 1/2" drive wrench. Will stop by Cdn Tire later today. What brand is on sale?

Lug nuts are especially important since overtightening can be expensive, and undertightening can be dangerous...
You buy t/wrenches with different 'drives', but the ones most useful to us are 1/2" and 3/8" inch drives with the appropriate sockets for each drive.
A set of Metric sockets and SAE sockets will be needed for different uses.
I have both these drives but would like to add a 1/4" drive wrench also.

Great for those delicate jobs, like plenum spacers.
They aren't quite as readily available though.... I had to order mine.
