Did the hubs slide in easily, when you installed them? The hub is an intereference-fit, and shouldn't just slide into place. The only time, I've had the axle nut work loose, was from the hub being worn out, from the bad bearing, that I replaced, on a 16V Scirocco.
The hub/bearing was fine - it came from my totally stripped 81 S (which just went to the junkyard yesterday), and had less than 5000 km on it. There was no play in the bearing either. As soon as I get over this flu I'll rip into it and see if I can figure out what happened... I've never had an axle nut loosen on me before though, so I'm curious as to what happened... Anyone else have this happen to them?
