OVERVIEW
Genuine VW/Audi Alternator Mount Bracket Bolt
N-107-618-01 is an original mounting bolt used at specified alternator support bracket positions on applicable Audi 2.5L five-cylinder applications. It supplies the correct replacement hardware for the diagram location calling for an M8 x 60 mm bolt. The alternator bracket uses multiple fasteners, so this bolt should be selected by its exact OEM number and assigned position.
Technical details
- OEM reference: N-107-618-01 / N10761801.
- Nominal size: M8 x 60 mm.
- Drive: Internal multipoint recess, as shown in the original product photo.
- Application: Designated alternator mount bracket fastening points. The selected diagrams distinguish this bolt from longer bracket hardware and other alternator retaining bolts.
- Supply: One individual bolt; alternator, support bracket and additional fasteners are supplied separately.
Common reasons to replace
Replace missing or damaged hardware when removing an alternator support bracket or carrying out related engine service. Damaged threads can prevent proper engagement, while a rounded drive recess can keep the tool from transmitting tightening or removal force reliably. Corrosion, a bent shank or damage beneath the head also warrants inspection and replacement as required by the repair procedure. A loose bracket should be inspected for worn mounting holes, cracked material or damaged mating threads rather than assuming that a new bolt alone will restore the joint.
Installation and service notes
Identify the M8 x 60 mm position in the original diagram before installing this part. Support and align the bracket, compare the removed hardware, and start the replacement bolt by hand. Use the correct fully seated multipoint tool and the vehicle's specified tightening sequence and torque procedure. Follow any renewal or thread preparation requirements in that procedure; the nominal size alone does not determine the correct torque. Replacing bracket hardware does not diagnose or repair an alternator charging fault.
Vehicle fitment
The confirmed applications below are limited to the specified bracket bolt location. Match the engine, installed bracket and original part reference. Similar engine families and earlier or later model years require their own part-number confirmation.
