Hi All, really struggled to remove the bolt from the bush and ended up having to cut the whole thing in half.

My question is: does anyone know the part numbers as there are loads online n all pretty expensive? Secondly how the hell are they supposed to come out /go ok when replacing normally? The boot floor gets in the way and doesn’t look as if there’s enough clearance?

Any help gratefully received.

The 2nd part number for the bolt superseded the first one in 2011, no idea why Buy 1K0501387D eccentric bolt Skoda, Volkswagen genuine OEM part (oemwolf.com)

Than you buddy

When my Octy was done many years ago the mechanic took the whole arm off and pressed the bush out in a press to change the seized bushes and essentric nut and bolt.
