Snagger Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 I can't remeber the number, but you want the blue non-permanent type, not the red permanent-fixing type. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retroanaconda Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Loctite 270, the WSM recommends. For the brake disc to hub bolts, which I assume is what you're referring to. I'd do the drive flange bolts too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
v8bertha Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 I'd do the drive flange bolts too IIRC you are supposed to change the drive member bolts, they come pre-treated with the blue stuff. Maybe this is only on newer vehicles, I'm not sure, but Retro's advise is good... gloop them with blue stuff, because if you don't they have a tendency to come undone which causes a whole heap of wear on your splines, leaky flanges , and some serious drive-train clonking... ask me how I know Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 drive member bolts on pre 300tdi 90/110 should have spring washers under the bolt head too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
