Apparently at least inner CV joints are identical to those on Z3M. The kit for Z3M contains Hylomar to seal flanges. Do we need use it here too?

As a BMW Z3? I am not familiar with the compatibility.
Give our parts specialists a call at 1-888-280-7799. They can help you figure it out. I opened a post in our forums. A Pelican community member may be able to answer your question. - Nick |

I've recently done this job. I imagine that if the BMW mating faces were poorly machined ,that an RTV sealer may prevent oil that separated from the grease from seeping out.
It would do no harm to use a generic RTV sealant there IMHO. I would be much more concerned about the bolts that attach the CV joint. They have an unhappy tendency to loosen! Some blue Loctite in cleaned threads(brake cleaner) ,new bolts and a torque wrench will fix that.
