Another one of those bolt size question threads...

Hey everyone,

I've been meaning to check every time I get home but not surprisingly, I always forget. I need to order a Helicoil for the head on my 1.6 but I don't know what size the bolts are that hold the front coolant flange onto the head.

I believe there's a site, a forum too, out there that once you're a member, has something where you can find the details on any bolt, but I never saved the link.

Sorry for being a nub, just want to order it so I have it when I get home this weekend.

The coolant flange bolts are M6x1.0 (6mm, 1.0mm pitch.)

You're probably thinking of http://www.vagcat.com/
Create account, then click on the Parts Catalogue link. Since it's (basically) ETKA, you'll find specs (thread size & length) for (most) any fasteners you look for.

Perfect, thanks!
