I'm searching for the specs of the bolt on the right (and the right torque specs too if possible). Also if anyone of you knows by chance if there is a difference in bolt specs between DSMs sold in Europe and the US would be grat? (I'm eurpean). If anyone's intrested in knowing how I managed to break this bolt of here's the story: I'm a tool maker apprentice so I decided to do basic stuff on my car myself to safe some money. I wasn't able to find a repair book online so I bought the digital ALLDATA version, but english isn't my first language and the terminology doesn't always translate that well. What exactly is this bolt called? Here's the list of specs I could find

I don't know the size and couldn't find specs for this bolt, but I did find it. I will keep looking for the specs. I call it a caliper bolt myself. I have all 4 tires off my car and it is sitting on my lift. I will see if I can remove one and get you the length and a picture.

Thanks for the quick reply, I really do appreciate it

It is helpful if you can fill out a vehicle profile so we know exactly what model we are talking about. You can add that HERE. I "assumed" it as a 1993.
I won't be home for at least 2 hours from now so it may take a bit to get you that picture and length. Just be patient with me

Thanks Marty, it would be great to know what kind of threads, like metric or whitworth, are on those bolts.

It's a 1992 model, I've updated my vehicle profile, thanks for the tip!

 

[1990TSIAWDTALON]

I am positive it is Metric. I will see if I can figure out the size and pitch for you with our pitch/thread gauges in the shop.

I am assuming it is a GS all-wheel-drive non-turbo application? If you have the European VIN number on the car I can do a more in depth search.

The pins are both M8 sized, I'd assume 1.25mm pitch. ASA does not tell the length of them.

The guide pin is MB238735, and the lock pin is MB534413.

That's the one! Thank you very much

Looks like twicks69 found it, thanks for all the help Marty. What torque would you recommend?

 

[1990TSIAWDTALON]

TIGHT!
I came up with M8 x 1.25 and a length of 60mm.
Now I haven't looked at Tim's numbers, are they close?
Thanks Tim!
