there was a thread couple days back about my new CV bolts looking green and generally not as nice as the old black ones.

well look what I found on my wifes cayenne today when I was washing it, green CV bolts!

Guess the factory is buying the cheap shit from China, god help us.

I think the green bolts are German. Mine came in a box with the boots and it said "made in Germany". I think it's a result of Gerhard Schroder's green party affiliations...

are they 8mm bolts like the 914 ?

I don't know but if I take the cayenne apart it will be up on jackstands like the 914 for 9 months.

actually the head looks much bigger than ours, and the truck weighs more than double a 914.

the reason they're green is bc the factories in china uses bamboo shaving and glue to make these bolts
