Post by: Khare on 04 August 2012, 19:25
What spec are they? Rounded one off today while doing rear brakes and I'm going to be removing it roughly so need new ones.

M10 fine, I think...and either 10.8 or 12.9 strength.
Best get them from VW...they are cheap as chips.

Yeah I'll ring up VW on monday. Will they have them in stock do you reckon or will they have to order it in like most parts I've bought before?

Cheers for the offer Ben, top lad :afro:. But I rather buy a new set of bolts.

They should stock them, if not try your local bolt supplier but make sure they are a high grade.
