Fender Bolts torque / replacement
I have 2 questions for whoever has the knowledge or maybe acces to WIS to provide some documents:
1. Front fender replacement - what is the tightening torque for the fender bolts?
2. Can the bolt be reused or do you need new ones when removing the fender?
I was reading somewhere and it was said that the fender bolts are one time use, if you try to reuse them, they have become elongated and will become loose in time, that’s why you should replace the bolts when removing the fender.
it’s for w212 , I guess the specs should be the same regardless of the engine model in this case
