Cats suck. Cats knock over tub holding oil pan bolts and front flange bolts. What are the dimensions of 2 rear seal flange bolts? The 2 bolts that go through the pan into the rear flange

Thank you. I thought the two on the very rear were shorter. Im currently reassembling everything. Fingers crossed all i lost was the clutch line clip.

Did you wind up with two shorter bolts?
If you do, that is where I would put them...in the middle two rear seal holes.
It may be a non-issue on the BHW but it makes it easier on the ALHs where you have to angle the tool a bit to place them.

I have lots of exta bolts. I have a few tubs on a rack from where I've parted out or am parting out some passats and they were kocked over.
