OVERVIEW
Genuine VW/Audi N-912-378-01 is an individual panel mounting screw used at the assigned original component points. The confirmed applications below include Volkswagen intercooler mounting brackets and Audi cowl air-intake duct attachments.
Technical details and what is included
- Factory number: N-912-378-01 / N91237801.
- Component: individual panel fastening screw.
- Quantity supplied: one individual screw.
- The archive photograph shows the black broad head, recessed drive and threaded fastening stem.
- The original Volkswagen intercooler diagram identifies this screw at the mounting-bracket point.
- The confirmed Audi cowl diagrams identify the same factory number at the intake-duct fastening point.
The component name varies with the installation point. A catalog may call it a mount-bracket bolt or intake-duct bolt when showing that particular connection. Those descriptions do not make it a universal replacement for other screws in the same assembly.
Match the exact original number, receiving attachment and installed component before ordering. A screw used on an intercooler bracket is selected by that bracket assignment; the same factory number at a cowl duct is selected by the original cowl diagram. Nearby studs, rivets, receiving nuts and brackets are separate parts.
Common reasons to replace
- The original screw is missing after component removal.
- The drive recess is damaged and no longer accepts the correct tool securely.
- The fastening stem or receiving engagement has been damaged.
- The correct factory screw is needed after previous work used unsuitable hardware.
- The applicable service procedure calls for renewal of the disturbed fastener.
Inspect the bracket, duct and receiving attachment point before installing the replacement. A cracked mounting boss, distorted bracket or damaged duct requires separate repair. New fastening hardware alone does not repair a charge-air leak, restore a damaged intercooler or diagnose an HVAC air-intake problem.
Vehicle fitment
The table distinguishes the engine-specific charge-air cooling applications from the body-mounted cowl duct applications. Match the component and exact original screw point; a model year alone does not establish every fastening location.
| Vehicle | Model years | Engine | Configuration | Application restrictions |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Volkswagen Atlas | 2018–2023 | 2.0L turbocharged gasoline inline-four | Original 2.0L charge-air cooling arrangement; 8-speed automatic; factory drivetrain as equipped | Assigned intercooler mounting-bracket screw, original diagram point 3 with mount bracket 1Z0121367B. Excludes the 3.6L engine from this intercooler-specific row. |
| Volkswagen Atlas | 2024–2026 | 2.0L turbocharged gasoline inline-four | Original charge-air cooling arrangement; 8-speed automatic; factory drivetrain as equipped | Original intercooler mounting-bracket screw point; exact genuine description specifies 2024–2026 2.0L. Match installed bracket and screw assignment. |
| Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport | 2020–2023 | 2.0L turbocharged gasoline inline-four | Original 2.0L charge-air cooling arrangement; 8-speed automatic; factory drivetrain as equipped | Original intercooler mount-bracket screw, diagram point 3; original part note 2020–2023. Excludes 3.6L engine from this intercooler row. |
| Audi e-tron Sportback | 2020 | Battery-electric dual-motor drivetrain | Original Sportback; quattro; cowl air-intake assembly; Single-speed electric drive | Original cowl intake-duct fastening screw at diagram point 4, associated with intake duct 4KL819904C. Confirm the installed cowl duct assignment. |

Installation and service guidance
Follow the factory procedure for the installed bracket or duct. Support and align the component before installing the screw, remove any broken pieces and inspect the receiving point. Use the correct drive tool and start the screw carefully in the assigned connection.
Use the prescribed tightening method for that exact point. Do not apply a generic metal-bolt tightening value to a panel screw or force the screw to pull a misaligned component into place. Confirm secure seating and reconnect any ducts or hoses disturbed during the work.
This listing supplies one screw. The quantity needed varies with the assembly and repair. Intercoolers, mount brackets, intake ducts, receiving fasteners and other hardware are separate.
