Securing bumper to impact damper
Up to VIN 400 000
  Note
t  The impact damper is self-adjusting, i.e. it can compensate for differences in height between the bumper and the impact damper when the hexagon socket head bolt is screwed in.
t  This means that the front bumper is automatically held in the position adjusted before and secured when the hexagon socket head bolts -1- are screwed in.
t  Vehicles with VIN 400 001 or higher no longer have the self-adjusting height compensation feature.
