BMW love keeping us on our toes wrt to fasteners!

The nuts & bots holding the inlet manifold down on the M57 are fun sizing too - seven 10mm bolts and five 11mm nuts.

On the M57 exhaust manifold, the M8 nuts are 10mm ATF (OEM) and 12mm ATF (replacement).

I've been buying a LOT of new tools lately!
