                I came across a fun decision Volkswagen made when they did the front subframes on mk4's. The front control arm bolt threads into a captive nut. This captive nut is not friction welded or spot welded to the subframe. They used an adhesive to adhere it. I was one of the no so lucky many who happened to break a captive nut free when removing one of the control arms. Time to open a hole in the subframe and tack the bugger back in place haha. Luckily the other side stayed put=)
