if anyone happens to be on today with dialogys to hand could they do me a favour and look up the size of the sump bolts...19 16v obviously, and if u can make a choice, ally sump, as the ally sump bolts i believe r longer.

also how many....i do have a sump at home i cud count on them but i may be goin to nuts and bolt shop today before goin home and would like to pick a set of bolts up to do the job....not goin to renault and payin like a quid per bolt!!!

many thanks in advance.

77 03 006 174 BOLT 7X100X25 .69

theres the actual ren bolt for them with the sizes.

as for how many, dunno more than 1 less than a hundred. but 21 looks about right.

7 x 100 x 25?? i assume they mean M7 x 25L 100 off or something....i thought it was around M7...stupid non standard size but should be able to pick some up easy enough. prefer hex heads too as opposed to torx.

thanks very much boys.

on topic....whats the size and qty of the bolts that hold the water pump on? about 16 of them?

Forum Moderator Joined: 02 Mar 2004 Posts: 19978

16? no.

3 for the pulley and 8 or so for the pump, cannae mind, to lazy to go and look as well.

There be 9 bolts holding the water pump on, says I.

This for some reason, I remember clearly.

Also, a you need to put a couple of them into their holes on the pump before bolting the pulley on, as cleverly you cant get them in with the pulley in place Rolling Eyes

thanks for the tip neal....they are once again M7, what dicks renault r for using a non-std size, why not M6 or M8 nice sizes....ah well im gunna order a bucket full of M7 x 25s from that website methinks..

and yes it is nine...plus the three for the pulley...damn what size would they be?

13mm heads, same as the rest of the 13mm on the car.

Mr Quoter-vator Joined: 16 Feb 2004 Posts: 7405

still a stupid non-standard size...clever money making scheme tho i guess...

Forum Moderator Joined: 02 Mar 2004 Posts: 19978

but they are standard on renaults so whats the beef?

Mr Quoter-vator Joined: 16 Feb 2004 Posts: 7405

fair enough if u got a garage full of renault bolts, but otherwise they are not so easy to come by...its just good practise to use std sizes, like m6 or m8.
