Part numbers and torque settings

Torque settings and genuine part numbers for the Golf MK7 and MK7.5, grouped by area, with every figure linked to its source and every disagreement shown.

Read this first

Confirm every figure against the VW workshop manual for your car's VIN before you rely on it. Most figures here come from aftermarket fitting guides and owner sites, not from VW. Bolts tightened to a torque plus an angle are stretch bolts: fit new ones every time.

"+90°" means tighten to the torque shown, then turn the bolt a further 90°. Bolts with an angle stage stretch as they are tightened, so replace them rather than reuse them.

Many rows add data from the MQB Track Cars owners' club, credited and linked. Its values are marked Unverified unless another source agrees.

"At ride height" means do the final tightening with the car sitting on its wheels, not hanging on a lift, so the rubber bushes are clamped in their normal position.

Part numbers: before you order

Confirm every part number against ETKA using your car's VIN before ordering. Numbers change with supersessions, and many parts differ between left-hand and right-hand drive cars or depend on the car's PR codes (factory option codes). In the sources used here, 5GM and 5QM prefixes mark US-market numbers.

Status: Verified means the number was checked against a parts listing. Numbers seen only in a search snippet or not confirmed at all are tagged Unverified.
