OVERVIEW
Genuine collared bolt for the front liner bracket
The N-911-888-01 Genuine VW/Audi bolt secures the assigned front fender-liner bracket connection on the configurations below. It combines an M8×30 factory specification with an internal multipoint drive and collared bearing head.
The wheelhousing area uses several different screws, nuts and plastic retainers. This bolt belongs to the particular bracket attachment assigned this full factory number. It does not include the liner, bracket, body panel or a complete wheelhousing hardware set.
Technical details
- Complete factory number: N-911-888-01.
- Factory specification: M8 × 30.
- Design: internal multipoint socket bolt with collared combination head.
- Quantity supplied: one individual bolt.
Correct head geometry, bearing surface and thread engagement help reproduce the original mounting arrangement. A smaller liner screw or a similarly sized general-purpose bolt is not automatically suitable for this bracket connection.
Common reasons to replace
- The original bracket bolt is missing after wheelhousing service.
- The internal drive recess is damaged.
- Threads are damaged or cross-threaded.
- The collar or head is distorted.
- A previous repair fitted incorrect hardware at the bracket attachment.
Inspect the bracket, receiving threads and liner attachment before fitting a replacement. A new bolt cannot restore a broken liner mounting tab or damaged support bracket. Correct those defects before securing the assembly.

Installation guidance
Follow the factory wheelhousing access and support procedure. Align the liner bracket without forcing it, start the bolt by hand and use the correctly fitting multipoint tool. Apply the tightening specification for the exact original attachment.
Verify that the liner and bracket are secure and have the required clearance from the tire and moving suspension. Refit the remaining original screws, nuts and clips and complete the prescribed checks after access work.
