Buy Eccentric Bolt in the UK – Genuine Volkswagen Parts in Stock

Ensure precise suspension alignment and long-term driving stability with the Volkswagen Eccentric Bolt, available from Volkswagen Parts UK. This OEM-grade adjustment bolt is a critical component used in Volkswagen suspension geometry, allowing accurate wheel alignment settings for safe handling, even tyre wear, and optimal road performance.

Designed to meet strict Volkswagen factory tolerances, the eccentric bolt plays a vital role in maintaining correct camber and suspension positioning—especially after repairs, suspension replacement, or wheel alignment adjustments.

Compatibility & Fitment

The Volkswagen eccentric bolt is widely used across multiple suspension platforms.

Compatible Volkswagen models include:

  • Volkswagen Golf (Mk5–Mk8)
  • Volkswagen Polo (various generations)
  • Volkswagen Passat
  • Volkswagen Tiguan
  • Volkswagen T-Roc
  • Volkswagen Arteon
  • Volkswagen Touran
  • Volkswagen Transporter
  • Volkswagen Touareg
  • Volkswagen Amarok
  • Volkswagen ID.3 / ID.4 (platform dependent suspension variants)

Model usage notes:

  • Typically used in rear or front suspension control arms
  • Common in multi-link and MacPherson strut systems
  • Exact fitment depends on chassis code and suspension design

OEM importance:

Correct OEM bolt selection ensures:

  • Factory alignment precision
  • Safe suspension articulation
  • Proper camber adjustment range
  • Compliance with Volkswagen geometry specifications

How It Works

The eccentric bolt features a non-central cam-shaped washer or shaft design, allowing controlled movement during tightening.

Functional mechanism:

  • Bolt rotates to shift suspension arm position
  • Offset cam changes alignment angle
  • Technician adjusts camber during wheel alignment

Suspension interaction:

  • Works with control arms and knuckles
  • Impacts tyre contact patch
  • Influences steering stability and cornering balance

Why replacement may be needed:

  • Corrosion from road salt
  • Suspension repairs or accident damage
  • Seized or worn adjustment mechanism
  • Incorrect alignment after part removal

Symptoms of worn bolt:

  • Uneven tyre wear
  • Pulling to one side
  • Poor steering return
  • Failed wheel alignment readings

Performance Benefits

Although small, the eccentric bolt has a major impact on vehicle dynamics:

  • Precise wheel alignment adjustment
  • Improved tyre lifespan
  • Enhanced cornering stability
  • Better steering response
  • Reduced suspension strain
  • Improved fuel efficiency via reduced drag
  • Safer handling under load

Correct alignment ensures the vehicle behaves as Volkswagen originally engineered.
