2018 Arona 1.0 TSI; front hub nut size?

Hi folks, hope all is well.

The front offside roadspring on my Arona died with a bang earlier in the week, and I have a new spring right here ready to go on. However, my trusty 36mm multipoint socket seems to be slipping on the hub nut when I apply the breaker bar to it.

Seems odd; it could be that the nut or socket are worn, but an inspection of the socket seems to show that its in good order. Could anyone in the know confirm; is this a 36mm nut or could it in fact be 35mm?

cheers!
