    Part number?

    Can anyone tell me this part no/where I can get an equivalent?



    The red circled one is the only one left, the one underneath has also gone...

    Thanks

    M10 nut, should be able to get them in hardware store. OEM ones are now made from copper or brass.

      I use these on my vehicles, They have a serration on the back to stop them coming undone and they are 15mm spanner size so it's easier to tighten the one at the back which is a pain in the bum...

        If you need the gaskets for the wastegate flexi, then I had a batch made.

            Thanks guys I was wary of getting any old nut as it's on the hot side of the turbo. Now all I have to do is learn how to perform contortion to get the one on underneath

              You need a swan neck or half moon spanner and get creative with the ginder
              Remove the waste-gate flex pipe first, makes it loads easier.

                Yep, I butchered a cheapo spanner the first time I tackled a down pipe.

                  I have got it down to a fine art now with a 4" long stubby spanner and a pry bar just to get it started then you can control the spanner with your finger tips to get it off the rest of the way.

                  The first time you take it off its hard work once they have been off at least in the last 3 years they are easier

                    One unsuccessful attempt down.... Realised I have nuts from my spare turbo. I didn't get very far Anything I tried removing to get to the turbo had something else in the way of removing that

                    I managed to get the second nut on but need a lot of space to get them on tight. I was also under the impression that there were only three studs on the turbo until looking at my spare

                      Success! Figured out how to remove the air box and managed to tighten up the two nuts still hanging on plus added one. The last one is impossible to get to and I'm certain the entire car, right down to the bootlid, needs dismantling to get to it. But three nuts on tight and one missing is better than two missing and the others loose enough to see daylight through the gasket

                        The back bottom one is a real **** if you only have fairy basic tools, another approach is to remove the starter and tackle it from underneath.

                          If '****' starts with a c and ends with a t then you are right

                            Yes, I have no idea why it blanked out "cart".

                              You want one of these, once you bend it to the same radius as the downpipe its perfect
