N-107-190-01 Genuine VW/Audi Self-Locking Driveshaft Bolt - M8 x 45 x 30

Genuine VW/Audi self-locking driveshaft bolt, part number N-107-190-01. This original internal multi-point fastener is specified in the propeller-shaft hardware arrangement on the configurations below. It is supplied individually for the assigned original attachment position.

Technical details

• Original number: N-107-190-01 / N10719001.
• Published nominal size designation: M8 x 45 x 30.
• Self-locking mounting fastener with internal multi-point drive.
• Application: specified bolt in the original propeller-shaft hardware arrangement.
• One bolt supplied. Driveshaft, mating components, gaskets and other attachment hardware are separate.

The propeller shaft transfers drivetrain rotation between the assigned powertrain components in the quattro arrangement. Its hardware must match the actual connection so the assembly seats and fastens as intended. This bolt must be selected by original number and attachment position.

Other driveshaft connections, backing pieces and tunnel-brace attachments can use different original hardware. This listing is not a complete driveshaft bolt kit and does not establish interchangeability with every M8 fastener in the drivetrain.

Common reasons to replace

Replacement may be required during propeller-shaft removal or associated drivetrain service when the factory procedure calls for new self-locking hardware. Replace damaged threads, a damaged internal drive recess, deformation, missing hardware or corrosion that compromises reliable installation.

Inspect the original fasteners when previous repairs have introduced incorrect substitute hardware or damaged the drive recesses. Obtain the correct bolts and any separately prescribed seals or backing pieces for the actual connection.

Drivetrain vibration, clunks or noise require diagnosis of the complete shaft, joints, supports, mounting components and related drivetrain assemblies. A new bolt cannot repair a worn joint, damaged shaft, defective center support or misaligned mating component. Correct the diagnosed fault before completing the mounting connection.

Installation and service notes

Follow the factory propeller-shaft procedure for the exact vehicle and transmission. Support the shaft as prescribed before releasing its mounting hardware, and preserve any required orientation or alignment marks.

Identify the assigned N10719001 position before reassembly. Inspect the mating surfaces, bolt holes and threads. Install the correct separately specified gaskets or backing pieces where the repair procedure requires them.

Start the new fastener by hand in undamaged threads. Use a fully seated bit that matches the internal drive recess and keep the tool square to the head. Do not use tightening force to draw an incorrectly aligned connection into place.

Follow the required tightening sequence, factory torque and any additional angle for this exact attachment. Observe the prescribed replacement and thread preparation rules for the self-locking bolt.

Do not add threadlocker or lubricant unless the factory procedure calls for it. Do not transfer a tightening value from a tunnel-brace bolt, another shaft connection or an unrelated M8 fastener.

Complete the required component clearance and drivetrain operating checks after assembly. Confirm that the full attachment arrangement contains the correct hardware. This listing supplies one original bolt; select quantities and additional parts according to the actual repair.

Fitment

Confirm the original bolt number and assigned propeller-shaft mounting position before ordering. One bolt supplied.
