JAM11E 10 Posted May 29, 2014 Hi guys, Where can I get the Allen/hex bolts that fix the oil pan to the underside of the car? If they are available from VW does anyone have the part number? Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GlosterOx 0 Posted May 29, 2014 I replaced mine with St/Steel bolts + washers recently from a fastener wholesaler locally, other than that I would guess they should be available from VW? Ian. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dan_Storm 0 Posted May 29, 2014 They are available from VW. Part number N90423402, you will need 25 or 25 (can't remember). It came to £18 for me, but that was with a decent discount from a friend at TPS. The design has changed from allen heads to standard bolts. Access is a bit tight with a socket where the sump meets the flywheel so I used a few of my old allen bolts for this. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Bowen 1 Posted May 29, 2014 Noticed mine was a mix of the two bolts as well, i changed them so they matched Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ouch, think my stainless ones were about £3 or £4 total including washers - No one is going to see them and at least they won't rust! Ian. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Supercharged 2 Posted May 29, 2014 Be careful if it's a VR6 - there are 2 different sizes by chassis number as they changed the sump gasket. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JAM11E 10 Posted May 29, 2014 M6x14 cap head should do the job. Im off bolt shopping this aft if you want me to grab some? I have an oil leak because I bashed my sump so I need to do it tomorrow, I ordered from Vw. Thanks all the same though Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
delfinis38 1 Posted July 2, 2014 Just about to do mine... Do I need washers for the cap heads ? If so normal flat or spring washer I'm been lazy I,ve not looked under the car yet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GlosterOx 0 Posted July 2, 2014 If using Std VW Bolts then no washers are needed. Ian. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VAG-hag 0 Posted July 2, 2014 I would use washers if you are using normal cap heads with no flange. Or as I did, clean up the old vw ones and reuse them Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
