You Won't Believe This!

Hey all,

Bought my brand new 24 Nocturnal 3.0 Premium back in March of this year. Have only done a couple of exterior cosmetic mods up until now. I'm the only one whose ever touched those car except for the dealer when the car was dropped off before I bought it.

Fast forward 6 months and 3,100 miles (of which 2,000 of that was a 6 day Tail of the Dragon trip) I was going to install my AA catted DP.

I pull off the intake upper section and what do I find? This, this screw. This thing has been sitting on the POST filter side since the day I bought the car. How the hell did this not get sucked into the turbo?? I'll never know. Time to buy a lottery ticket!

Anyone else seen anything like this??

Before anyone asks, all the intake screws that match this one are accounted for. Nothing is missing.

Not a surprise. Here in Canada, Frank Stronach is recently famous for unwanted screws.

Came real close to getting screwed over.

Looks like someone had a screw loose at the factory.

Explains why that one was missing when Hans counted the 13627531817 bin that Friday afternoon

This is my thought. But how.... how did it survive not only normal around town driving but a 2,000 mile, beating the hell out of it on the Tail of the Dragon?!

I never have but I'm thinking I probably should!
