rear caliper bolts

[roundtuit]

2014 mk7 2.2 fwd. the bolts holding my rear calipers have been completly rounded have an extraction set coming but will need new bolts anyone know the correct size bolts. not the carrier ones. i think they are a 15mm head

unclear from your wording what you are talking about .. which bolts then, if not the carrier ?

M12 x 35mm note that's 12mm thread diameter

these will not be any old bolts - they will be high tensile

look at the diagram .. are you talking HB1 on the diagram .. part number - 1386758

note: comes up as drive shaft bolt for ford ranger in ebay .. must be the same number

its the hb1 in diagram. apreciate the info. still trying to get the old ones out even with the extractor set having trouble getting them to budge

1. Someone may have put red loctite on them ... means they need to be heated up beyond 200c to melt the loctite.

2. Have you tried flank drive sockets - these are 6 point hexagon sockets that grip on the flats and not the corners like 12 point ones do.
How flank drive works... first picture is a mild version, as you see a spanner version is illustrated too ...the 2nd illustration here is a bit of an exaggeration to get the message across, but now bit late, as you've probably mullerd it beyond saving ..but get sockets like this and rounding off will become highly unlikely in the future. as these sockets grip on the flats and not of the peaks of the hexagons.

Slider bolts usually come with decent set of pads if thats what you need, rounded slider bolts are a new one to me , someone been using wrong size of socket

ma bad.in first post he did say not the carrier bolts and thinks there 15mm......sorry metalman unfortunately i don't have time to read your copy and pasted multi paragraph answers..... least your back on catcar .... wonder who the somebody was that rounded the bolts in first place...
Doubt the extractor set will move them especially if nae heat
