I can't remember off-hand Jon, but I've just done mine and they were buttons from VW. 5 quid touch for the set....

Standard aren't they bolts that secure turbo to mani ? By turbo came with 3 bolts anyway haha and I was going to ask every 1 If they convert to nuts ands studs for Easter fitting

have a look on www.partsbase.org. All part numbers and specs available on there. Great site.

seems the link/website is no longer operating.  ill see if i can get any sense out of my local VW stealers or failing that find a nice length of threaded bar the right size and chop it up. only thing thats stopping me from fixing the exhaust leak now.

try www.7zap.com instead. parts base has gone

that dont work either 😂 im hopefully swapping the turbo out for a new one now its finally being brought back to life so ill clench my bumcheeks together and pay a visit to vw

looks like the url should be: https://7zap.com/en/

I've never heard of the company before myself.

Edit: oh so it's not a company as such, it's an online version of etka by the looks of it.  Pretty useful, does vagcat not exist any more?

looking online it says M10 x 35. that sound right?
