I find it hard to believe that these KONI FSD shocks are unreliable.
Regarding the bolts issue I have some doubts too. Maybe I'm wrong, but this is what I remember from my years at school some ages ago: The shaft of the bolt itself isn't supposed to keep the bush of the shock in place. That's the job of the head of the bolt. The bush of the shock should be squeezed so firmly between the head of the bolt and the chassis that no movement can occur. If bolts with fatter shafts fix the problem, then this means that the bolts aren't thightened enough to prevent movement of the bushes. Then you reduce the harm done by the symptoms without removing the cause.
Yes exactly
