    Extra nuts

    Well I have put my car together and I have these three extra nuts. A friend took them off and now no one remembers where they go. Any ideas?

    Re: Extra nuts

    They look like the nuts for the heat shield around the drive shaft

    they look like the nuts that hold the AC accumulator on (behind the passenger intercooler)

    Re: Extra nuts

    Well, its not too strange anymore to have a 3rd nut, many people in society do...

    I kid, I kid. Agree with both options, could be for heat shield or A/C accumulator. Check both.
