Product details
On the BMW X5 from 2007–2018 and the X6 from 2008–2019, this Original BMW flanged hex screw is a control arm bolt, with an M14 x 1.5 thread and a 103 mm length. Control arm bolts clamp the suspension arms to their mounts. Keeping them in good condition is part of holding the alignment settings once the car has been aligned. BMW names this part "Hexagon screw with flange" and specifies a chrome-free CR(VI) coating. It weighs 150 grams. BMW has produced it since September 2006, and it is made in the United States. It is sold individually, as one piece.
Original BMW Parts carry a 24-month parts warranty.
Part number 31-10-6-769-434 replaced the earlier 31-10-6-751-185. BMW marks the change as retrospective, so the current bolt also fits vehicles built with the earlier number. Worn or wrong suspension hardware is often mistaken for a failed arm. The signs include a car that will not hold its alignment after suspension work, uneven tire wear even after a correct alignment, excess suspension noise, and loose links or arms.
