Well, I just squeeze up the splines on the propshaft a bit and it comes off, if I want to take the propshaft off. It's been like that since I had it - I didn't think it was anything unusual. It's a 2006 model, if that's got anything to do with it.
Is it easy to take of, just a case of unscrewing?

Remove nut 4
Remove steel washer 3
Remove felt washer 2
Pull flange off.
Replace bolt.
Refit.
Item 6 is a mudshield & is an interference fit on the flange. Been a while since I've had my front flange off (& I replaced it anyway as it was very worn & not sealing properly) so I can't remember if the mudshield gets in the way of removing the bolt.

There is a circlip and it needs big pliers to remove.
