Caliper Carrier Bolts P/N?
« on: 23 February 2007, 17:23:31 »

Can someone with EPC find-out the P/N for the front caliper carrier securing bolts (these are the bolts securing the brake caliper carrier to the hub)? It's a 2001 2.6 but I think they are all the same (apart from some early 4-cylinder models).

The bolts need to be torqued by angle, and I like to replace this type of bolts when disturbing them (I know not everyone does!).

Thank you...

EPC says 90442281 or 90541296 both are M12 X 40mm, don't know what the difference is though!

Hope this helps,

Think the 90541296 is proper to chassis numbers W1000000 onwards..

According to the very helpful Parts Manager at Vx, the chassis number used to have a letter signifying the year - up to W which is 2000 and that was the last the letters system was used. From 2001, Vx changed to a digit, 1 signifying 2001 etc. So my car being a 2001 Y will need the post-W1000000 bolts...

Thanks again dave c!

Yep - my 2000 is a Y.

I did wonder when the numbers came in.
