Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I'm about to install the pressure plate, so I check the Bentley manual and it says to be sure to use new lock washers under the bolt heads. I see no reference to washers in any parts list, and my old bolts had no washers under the heads. I bought new bolts from the dealer, he made no reference to washers. Is this simply an error in Bentley?

POST 2Original post

Sounds like an error to me. No such washers even in the parts diagrams.

I did the clutch myself and don't recall any washers.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Agree, I went ahead and assembled the PP without washers. I did, however, add some blue loctite to the threads �just in case�. Torque value also seems low, but I could make the same statement for nearly every bolt in the engine except for the TTY applications. Here is the section of the manual I�m referring to:
