OVERVIEW
Genuine VW/Audi locking collared hex nut, part number N-106-092-01. This original M8 fastener is cataloged at specified wiper-arm and trunk-latch mounting positions. The fitment table distinguishes the confirmed attachments rather than treating the nut as interchangeable at every M8 connection.
Technical details
- Original number: N-106-092-01 / N10609201.
- Published nominal thread size: M8.
- External hex with an integral collar beneath the nut.
- Locking nut design identified in the original parts catalog.
- One nut supplied. Wiper arm, latch and other mounting hardware are separate.
At the specified wiper attachment, the nut retains the arm at its mounting connection. Correct arm positioning and hardware seating are necessary for normal operation. At the separate trunk latch attachment, the nut retains the assigned latch component in its factory arrangement.
Match the actual original number and mounting position before ordering. Other nuts of the same nominal diameter can have different threads, collars or locking features and should not be substituted solely by size.
Common reasons to replace
Replace a missing nut, damaged internal threads, a rounded hex, deformation or corrosion that affects reliable assembly. Follow the factory replacement requirement for locking hardware whenever the relevant procedure calls for renewal after removal.
Wiper arm or latch service can reveal an incorrectly fitted substitute nut or damaged mating stud. Inspect the actual connection and component mounting surfaces before installing new hardware.
A slipping wiper arm may also have worn mating splines or incorrect seating. Trunk latch problems can involve alignment, wiring or the latch itself. A new nut cannot repair a damaged arm, failed latch or defective mounting stud, so diagnose the full assembly before reassembly.
Installation and service notes
Follow the factory procedure for the exact mounting position. For wiper service, preserve the prescribed park position and arm alignment, and keep the wiper mechanism in the required service state while working.
Inspect the mating stud and contact surfaces. Seat the wiper arm or latch component correctly, then start the nut by hand on undamaged threads. Do not use the nut to force a misaligned component into place.
Use the correct socket and the specified tightening value for the actual connection. A wiper-arm attachment and a trunk-latch mounting point can require different instructions despite using the same nut number.
Do not infer torque from the M8 designation. Follow the prescribed locking hardware renewal and thread preparation requirements, and avoid adding an unapproved lubricant or locking compound.
After wiper service, check clearance and the complete sweep in the prescribed manner. After latch work, check secure engagement and normal release according to the repair procedure. If the nut binds or the component does not seat normally, inspect the mounting parts before proceeding.
This listing supplies one original nut. It is not a complete wiper arm or latch installation kit; other hardware must be selected separately for the actual repair.
