Nightmare!!

[sinny89]

So im finally getting my TSI back together after 3 months off the road, feeling positive after getting the head gasket on last night.

So after work today I thought id get in a few hours on the car while theirs light .... Them BAM! tightening up the inlet manifold the torx bolt goes on me manuel says 20nm

then to top it off i misplace the snowman shaped seal for the coolant in/outlet to the head.

so been trawling the web looking for the parts i need to no avail

#just give the miss a beating " at table tennis"

but on a serious note can anyone help with the correct part names or codes for these parts, im not lazy im just burt with searching, I can post this afternoons web history if anyone want to laff at the ridiculous amount of searching ive been up to.

any help would be massively appreciated

a great place to start is an online parts catalogue, i.e. etka.cc

What a diamond, found bolt from that site :M6X35
can i just buy a decent set of those and it will be fine?

other part is this but i just need the seal :03F121111A
Just asked some on ebay who supplies the part if they sell the seal separate.

You’ll want to use genuine bolts from your dealer or TPS as genuine bolts have the correct strength rating and treatment for engine use

Same for the seal. Take the part number to the dealer or TPS and they’ll order it in
