David Brown is infamous around these parts
Vantage driveshaft
The V8 Vantage service schedule calls for the driveshaft bolts to be checked for tightness every 32000km/24 months. Anybody done this check themselves? Wondering if the torque tube has an access point to allow this check to be done. Thanks.

Just check them when you have the clutch replaced? Have a look at the drive train and you should be able to discover your answer.

Is this just...not something anyone does? I can't find any info about it. I don't expect my clutch to be out 24k miles...

Welp, that makes quite a bit more sense...They use both terms in various manuals...

Thanks, y'all.
