OVERVIEW
Genuine VW/Audi Hexagon Bolt
N-010-241-23 is an original M8 x 22 mm hexagon-head bolt used at assigned fastening points. The confirmed profiles below identify a gearbox catalog position on selected Golf, Jetta and Cabrio applications. This fastener must be matched to the original assembly, gearbox code and bolt number. Its threaded shank and hexagonal head provide the fastening geometry required at the designated joint. One individual bolt is supplied.

Common reasons to replace
Replacement may be required when the original bolt is missing, has damaged threads, a rounded hexagonal head or corrosion at its seating surface. Hardware can also need renewal during gearbox component removal and overhaul, according to the applicable service instructions. Inspect the mating threaded component before installing a new bolt. A fastener cannot correct damaged housing threads, a distorted component or an incorrectly assembled joint. If a bolt has loosened, determine the underlying cause and inspect the retained parts rather than assuming new hardware alone resolves the problem.
Installation and service notes
Confirm the original OEM number, gearbox code and fastening location before ordering. Follow the service procedure for the assigned assembly, including component alignment, any separate washer requirement, hardware renewal and specified tightening. Start the bolt correctly and ensure that its length and seating arrangement match the original installation. Do not infer thread pitch, strength class or torque solely from the nominal M8 x 22 specification. A nearby bolt can have a different shank length, seating surface or thread requirement. For internal gearbox work, preserve the required component arrangement and cleanliness, and complete the prescribed assembly and operating checks after service.
Vehicle fitment
The following profiles require the original four-speed automatic gearbox application at catalog position 24 that specifies this bolt or its identified prior revision. They do not establish compatibility with every gearbox or every mounting bolt on a listed vehicle. Confirm the gearbox code and original fastener before purchase.
