No, they are rubber/silicone and be re-used over a couple times, but you can try re-tightening them. It only takes 8 ft lbs for each nut (5) so don't over-do it, they break pretty easily. If loose, you'd have a vacuum leak which would cause problems, but they don't come loose by themselves. Have yo had any work done lately?
