You can ask BMW.
Personally, I think BMW has its strength and weakness.
- Strength is in esthetic "curb appeal", driveability, the "name BMW" etc.
- Weakness is: reliability and repair procedure is overly cumbersome.
Technical manuals were written with liability in mind. This bolt discussion is somewhat dumb simply b/c the crazy (paranoid) engineers wrote that sentence of "replacing the bolts" and not-too-smart people follow it like the Bible. Remember "it takes 2 to tango" and I am not part of this tango.
