Uh oh.
Edit: tartilla, here is a link to the thread where this has been discussed ad nauseum. Andrew did some great testing in there and came to a determination about reusing the OE bolts, replacing them with cheaper alternatives, and torquing techniques. https://xoutpost.com/bmw-sav-forums/...llation-7.html

I'm not against the replacement of certain bolts like TTY per say. My Mack U Bolts at 1-14" and the 1800ft.lb tq spec, I would never re-use them. Despite the extreme cost and poor availability. An extreme example. Head bolts would be another area of concern. I'll be yanking my plate off soon, so I'll have more perspective. Hopefully no curses. Great forum here, by the way. Lot's of good info, and community. |
