Haynes Manual Reference on New Bolt replacement

Post by strom19 »

In the Haynes S60 workshop manual it refers to removal of brake caliper and limiter bracket for removal of front Disc rotor. In a side note it says..New bolts will be required for refitting. Can anyone explain to me why New Bolts are required for refitting? :o Much appreciated..

Not really required to replace bolts, just Loctite on the bolts.
It says so because Volvo says so to add a bit more to the bill and cover thine arses.
