has anyone else found that the greenish CV bolts are soft???
I've had a few break while I was installing them and they snapped well under 20 lb's of torque (I tighten them using a torque wrench, I start off with a lower setting and work my way up to the proper setting) I've never had a problem with the darker black colored CV bolts which I am guessing are factory spec and not just the generic VW bug replacment units?????
