Here's the official VIDA documentation showing what chrafael means. And to correct scot850, you must replace the nut for the control arm ball joint to steering knuckle pinch connection. Haynes doesn't say it's single use and it doesn't require angle tightening (torque to yield), so I checked VIDA to...
