Subject:      Re: CV Bolts... clunk, clunk.

I love this list. I have a major problem and am too embarased to mention it because I attributed it to my supreme incompetence, and a week later it shows up on the list!! Really makes a guy feel much better about himself to see others with the same problems. CV Joints Anon. sound like the place for me.

I also had all six bolts fall out at a stoplight. Clunk...whiirrrr...thump! The "thump" was the sound of my heart impacting my bladder as I thought about my transmission and which component could possibly fail in such a manner.

I've learned to be much more carefull with torques and locktite and such in the future.

Motor on,

Albrecht
