It's more when they work loose the CPS won't read which starts the HUGE diagnostic bill for why the car won't run to discover its flywheel and then box out job to fix,,,, trust me seen this on transits and galaxy referral work for IMT who can't fix shit once the diagnostic tool don't tell them the real problem

It's mainly for oil retention. They can be reused if they are put back in with the correct sealant
