Bolts missing in core support

So the Stealership just called. Ziggy's new starter is in. I'm going to go pick him up after work today! Sooooo excited!

They informed me that my core support bolts are missing. Uh.... WTF? Anyone know what size these are and how much?

Could those have been taken out when I had my bumper repaired after I was backed into? Just curtious how bolts mysteriously disappear.

Good to hear you are going to go get Ziggy. I'm not sure what "core support bolts" are but they sound very important.

Keep us posted.

Wow! Maybe the radiator core support. I would say that is important. I did a quick search and the core support bolts I found looked like body bolts. I wouldn't think they would be too expensive....unless you buy them from the dealer.

LOL. I swear this dealer here must charge you to use their restrooms. He told me that it holds up the radiator and needs to be replaced ASAP. He said that my mechanic should be able to replace them at the same time he does the EGR Cooler flex pipe for no additional labor. But still... wondering what the heck that is. I'm jsut glad to have Ziggy back even if I'm only allowed to drive him to work and back.

Who did the repair on the bumper?

A local body shop. And they did a crappy job at that. Having dealt with them before, it's just not worth it. I'll have Der German fix it when I go up there in a couple weeks. Speaking of that... We'll have to all get together!

You know we are up for that. Just let us know when.
