Its attachment hardware must maintain the specified joint retention as the suspension moves. The collar provides the bearing surface beneath the nut; the self-locking specification is part of the original fastening arrangement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSelect this nut by its original part number and mounting position. An M10 diameter alone does not establish compatibility with another link, shock absorber, control arm or aftermarket suspension component.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCommon reasons to replace\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReplace this nut when servicing the specified link connection after removal. The TT RS factory parts catalog expressly identifies the nut as non-reusable, so a previously removed nut should not be reinstalled at that attachment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReplacement is also appropriate for a missing nut, damaged threads, rounded hex surfaces, visible deformation or corrosion that compromises the fastener. Inspect the mating link stud and mounting area whenever the original hardware is damaged or difficult to remove.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA knocking sound over uneven roads can involve a worn stabilizer-link joint, deteriorated bar bushings or another suspension component. A new nut does not repair a loose or worn ball joint, a damaged stud or an enlarged mounting hole. Diagnose the complete connection before choosing the repair.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eInstallation and service notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSupport the vehicle and suspension as directed by the repair procedure. Identify the exact rear link connection and compare the original nut number before ordering. Modified suspension systems and replacement links can use different hardware and tightening requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStart the correct nut by hand on undamaged mating threads. Use the specified counter-holding method when the link stud requires it, and follow the factory tightening specification for the actual attachment. Do not determine torque from the M10 diameter or transfer a value from another suspension joint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReplace non-reusable hardware and check the mating components for damage before assembly. Use lubricants, thread treatments or locking compounds only when the applicable procedure specifies them. If the nut will not seat normally, stop and inspect the stud, thread engagement and mounting arrangement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eComplete the required suspension checks after installation.
