Hi Eric,

The same exact thing happened to me last week. Apparently the grease can work its ways into the threads, negating even loctite. Interestingly enough, I spoke to some Porsche specialists and they don't recommend the use of loctite. Rather, the use of upgraded grade 12.9 bolts and lock washers will solve the problems of loosening from vibration. Clean the grease thoroughly with q tips and brake cleaner, and check torque after 1,000 miles.
