These bolts retain that bracket at the knuckle. They are distinct from the smaller guide-pin bolts that secure the sliding caliper to its carrier and from the rotor retaining screw.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCorrect thread, length and mounting position are necessary for the prescribed carrier connection. Brake arrangements can differ within the same model range, so confirm the actual rear brake PR code and original hardware rather than selecting by vehicle name alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCommon reasons to replace\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOrder replacement carrier bolts whenever the factory procedure requires the carrier to be removed for rear brake service. This original fastener is specified for one-time use and should be replaced after removal rather than selected for reuse based only on appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlso replace missing hardware or a bolt with thread damage, corrosion, deformation or a rounded triple-square drive. Inspect the mating threads and carrier at the same time. Forcing a damaged bolt into the knuckle can damage the mounting point.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrake noise, uneven pad wear or abnormal caliper movement requires diagnosis of the complete brake assembly. A replacement carrier bolt does not repair a seized guide pin, damaged carrier, worn rotor, failed caliper or stripped mounting threads. Repair the diagnosed condition before reassembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eInstallation and service notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFollow the factory rear brake procedure for the exact vehicle and brake PR code. Support the caliper as prescribed during removal so its weight does not hang from the brake hose. Keep brake friction surfaces free of contamination.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIdentify the carrier-to-knuckle attachment separately from the guide-pin and rotor screws. Compare the original number and mounting position. Modified brake kits or replacement carriers may prescribe different hardware; follow the requirements for the actual fitted components.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInspect the carrier, seating surfaces and threaded mounting holes. Fit the carrier correctly and start each new bolt by hand in undamaged threads. Do not use a fastener to pull a misaligned bracket into place or overcome resistance caused by damaged threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse the correct triple-square tool fully engaged in the head. Follow the factory tightening sequence, torque and any additional angle requirement for this attachment. Observe the prescribed thread preparation and hardware renewal instructions instead of applying a general M12 torque value.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eObtain the complete quantity required for the repair separately. This listing supplies one carrier bolt and does not include guide-pin bolts, carrier hardware kits or brake service components.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eComplete all prescribed brake service checks after assembly, including restoration of normal pedal operation before moving the vehicle. Verify the caliper and carrier are correctly secured and the wheel installation is completed according to the repair procedure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVehicle\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eModel years\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eEngine\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eConfiguration\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eApplication restrictions\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVolkswagen GTI\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2015–2017\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.0L turbocharged gasoline, EA888 Generation 3\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMk7 hatchback, front-wheel drive; 6-speed DSG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOriginal rear caliper carrier-to-knuckle mounting position requiring N91168901.
