OVERVIEW
Genuine VW/Audi brake caliper bolt, part number N-010-241-24. This original self-locking hex-head fastener is assigned to rear brake caliper fastening on the verified Audi Q3 applications below. It provides the specified threaded connection and head bearing surface for the matching caliper hardware.
Technical details
- Original part number: N-010-241-24 / N01024124.
- Genuine-part catalog nominal size: M8 × 22.
- Hexagonal head with collar; cataloged as self-locking.
- The original photo shows the threaded shank and applied locking patch.
- Also cataloged as a disc brake caliper pin bolt / caliper assembly bolt.
- Supplied as one bolt. The caliper, guide pin and carrier are separate components.
Common reasons to replace
Brake service may require new fastening hardware according to the applicable repair instructions. Damaged threads, a rounded hex head, corrosion at the bearing surface or an impaired locking feature can also warrant replacement.
Caliper movement, noise or uneven pad wear requires inspection of the complete brake assembly. Check guide movement, bushings, pads and mounting points rather than assuming a new bolt alone will resolve the symptom. Stripped receiving threads or a damaged caliper require the appropriate repair before installation.
Installation and service notes
Confirm the fastener location using the VIN, brake configuration and parts diagram. The verified Q3 rear-brake diagram assigns this part to the caliper fastening connection; the separate caliper-carrier mounting bolt has a different part number. Similar-looking bolts with a matching nominal diameter can differ in length, head geometry and locking requirements.
Use the vehicle-specific brake procedure, the specified replacement-hardware requirements and the correct tightening value for the connection. Keep lubricant and brake fluid away from friction surfaces. Support the caliper during service, check the guide components and verify secure assembly and normal brake operation before returning the vehicle to use.
