About a year ago, the bolt that attaches my shifter linkages to the transmission fell out leaving me stranded. (this was installed by a previous owner so I have no idea if anti seize was used.)
In the last two weeks I have located rattles inside my car that have been bugging me. One was the front right side bolt for my passenger seat. Also two bolts on the passenger side back seat trunk latch bar were loose.
The passenger seat bolt backed off about half an inch but was still tight enough that I had to grab my large 1/2 Ratchet to tighten it back down.
I'm posting this for two reasons.
1) It might something to keep in mind for anyone that installs or has installed rough idle cams.
2) I was curious if anyone else has had problems with bolts loosening. It kind of has me scared. To my knowledge, these bolts (other than the shifter bolt) haven't been touched since the car was built. I can't practically check every single bolt in my car but, the thought of bolts coming loose on something more critical than a seat bolt has me worried.
I don't have prothane motor mounts or stiffer suspension components. I'd think that it would be worse if I did. If you've had bolts come loose, what were they?
