I inspected mine and there were no marks on them, no corrosion on them, the threads were intact and I could see no reason at all for replacing them so I just used the old ones again.

Yeah they are only screwed on to 20Nm can’t see why you’d replace. I just cleaned them up and reapplied the retainer and put them back on. Sold - Bell a 2015 MY16 Loire Blue Autobiography 4.4 SDV8

Agreed, I think that is the sensible thing to do.

I did. I had a bottle of it that I'd bought for doing the rear differential so it was handy.

Its only a vibration damper fitted to vehicles with the bigger brakes, I resorted to drilling a hole on the casing of the cup and driving it off with a cold chisel.
