2 broken wheel studs replaced on front right brake rotor. Wheel nuts were not required as I had spares after installing lock nuts some months ago. Problem was most likely caused by 3rd party not tightening wheel nuts 2000km previously. Driver's electric window auto close stopped working. Would close if switch was held in "manual" position only. Fixed by "reset of computer".
