Driveshaft Bolts Sheared

[jaylward]

My "new" Can Am is testing my patience. Went out for a little spin yesterday and 2 bolts sheared from one of the driveshafts. It looks like all the bolts had worked their way loose over time and it was not something I spotted.

Anyway ... I have got new bolts on order and will make a start on drilling out the sheared ones ready for them. My transmission is a Porsche 930 (turbo) gearbox and the helpful AA guy said "is that a VAG Group tranny cos they all do that"! Has anyone else experienced this and, apart from preventative maintenance, what can I do to stop it happening again?

Cheers
