2015 V10 Exhaust Manifold Bolts

[HUGHP]

Does the exhaust manifold bolts problems still persist on 2015 V10s and newer? Any idea at approx milage?

I would say yes. The basic motor didn’t change.

Had mine changed out at 17 yrs.
1999 Dutch Star. 2 had rusted away. Had all changed was about 400 bucks. All came out with no difficulty. New gaskets included.

Is there a better aftermarket bolt, ARP, that is a replacement or are we limited to OEM? I have a couple that are gone so will need to be addressed

Has anyone determined the actual cause of them falling? Would be easier to find a permanent repair if known. Do they screw into a water jacket? Rusting? I believe they are studs, maybe grade 8 bolts instead. Mine are still good but I'm sure it's a matter of time.
