Title: Passat caliper carrier bolts?
Post by: revolver566 on June 17, 2018, 02:33:44 pm

Just got one Passat hub fitted to my mk5 GTI only to find it looks like I need longer caliper carrier bolts?!
Anyone have any or no where I can get any in the Derby/Nottingham area?

Also the centre bolt for the n/s driveshaft is being a bit of a mare to get undone, any tips?
Cheers, Kyle

try tps or the dealers for the bolt and the drive shaft bolts can be tight--i use a breaker beaker bar with a long piece of bar or jack handle for leavage
