    I've seen enough snapped in half head bolt washers that I'd replace them just for peace of mind.

    If you drive your e30 on stairs, you're gonna have a bad time.

      I haven't. Ever. Have you ever seen how thick the M20 head bolt washer is?

        You definitely need to run washers guys! You don't need to replace them with new though.

              Get. The. Washers. The right ones. They're reasonably high- tech.

                  My local bnw dealer wants $4.80 per washer guys! And I think from memory there is 12 or 14 of them I'd rather spend that money elsewhere on the car. Anyone know a good online shop to buy them from?
