It is for the bolt on the middle of the picture which holds the lower arm of the right side muffler bracket. I cannot find it on the PET.

Thanks for your help.

Harry,
I just spent 5 mintues searching PET - to no avail. If you look at the camshaft housing illustration, you can clearly see the hole for the bolt - but no bolt.

Hello Harry, the firewall where I work does not display the picture you posted, but I presume you want
The 10mm bolt that attaches the right muffler bracket to the engine?
If so, knowing that the bracket is held by a hex screw from the top
The bottom bolt no. is 900.075.355.02 + washer N 011 524 7 there is one on each side.
Andreas was nearly there by a few centimeters, it holds on the engine block.
Take care, regards to Wallace

Thanks geolab and Andreas,

I believe it is a 13mm bolt and not a 10mm. I too like Andreas was looking at the camshaft housing illustration but nothing on it!

You made me doubt for a second, but if this is the bolt on the pet (page 3 no:31 illustration 101-10), it is a 10mm, M 6 x 16 regards

OK so how do I read the bolt sizes? On p-car.com the bolt is said to be 13mm - I think this indicates the size of the hexagonal head and the 13mm wrench fits so where does the 10mm come in? I need some education into how to identify the size of the bolts.

I think I have found some answers:

M6 (diameter of th bolt 6mm) X 10 (length of bolt) X 13AF (across flat = 13mm across the flat part of the hexagonal head) is what it should read (PET misses out 13AF).

Cheers.

OK the bolts suggested above are not the correct ones - doesn't matter 'cos I can use it for something else on the car. I think Andreas was correct - hole is there on the camshaft housing but ommission by PAG on their PET diagram. Porsche are looking into this for me.
