Kind of what i thought, set and forget on a road car. Never to be looked at for a few hundred thousand miles. Also thought it may be an assembly process bonus. Not necessarily best practice but best outcome for a manufacturer. Have it in my... (see full post)
To answer your original question.
Splined Strut Camber Bolts - Why are they splinedWith a splined bolt which is pulled in with the nut. If the nut was to come loose the bolt will not move. I learned this while removing the steering knuckle...
Thanks for that bit of information. Was going to linish the splines down on the origional bolts but was curious if i was missing something from an engineering standpoint. My 944 had modified struts and they came with a factory eccentric washer... (see full post)

There are three things that I've taken on board over the last 20 odd years of driving performance cars:1. The engine oil temperature that matters the most is the oil temperature in the bearings that are being lubricated. Since you can't...
Time to throw the cat amongst the pigeons, why are we concerned about oil being up to temperature?
Follow the train of thought and see if it makes any sense.We are concerned about the "Engine" being up to temperature before, i know you lot... (see full post)
Self acknowledgement makes you way smarter than all those we have dealt with who think they know everything and have no f'ing idea they know nothing but will happily spread their "knowledge".
