I am being told the camshaft cap bolts are TTY, is this correct? I was told the crank damper, cam gear, and flywheel bolts are all TTY. can you verify this? TTY = Torque to Yield = 1 time use bolts.

Hello again.

Nothing in the repair guides show any of the bolts you mentioned as being one time use only.You might want to do that as far as added safety but again, not mentioned to being mandatory replaced.The only thing you need to be sure of doing is making sure everything is torqued to the proper torque specifications. Your question was about the camshaft bolts so I've attached the torque sequence and specifications below.Let me know if you have any further questions about this.Hope this helps and thanks again for using 2CarPros.
