Default Why? Was there a DTS there before? If so, they probably reused the stock bolt
which is not only torque-to-yield but also now too short with the thickness added by the DTS.

Just a guess.

Default so, first person maybe cross threaded it. Thought the best thing to do = jam the biggest
bolt they could find.

If you really want you could just go bigger LOL

if there's enough room...tap for a bigger bolt and use that.
