    You'd do well to check them again. Once they are holding, you should be good to go, but if they keep loosening up, something is wrong.

    Do I understand you to mean that you replaced the bolts that came out with NEW bolts - i.e, from the dealer, overpriced bolts with undersized heads and the little patch of threadlocker on the side?

    Now I feel like I'd better go back under the front end with the torque wrench!

    Best,

    Tom
