Original BMW M6 x 12 Torx Bolt with Washer for BMW 1, 3, 5, 6, and 7 Series, X1, X3, X5, X6, Z4, and Z8 (1992–2015)

An M6 x 12 Torx bolt with a washer, Original BMW part 07-14-6-985-055 is a general-purpose fastener BMW uses across a wide spread of models, from the E36 3 Series to the X1, X6, and E9x 3 Series. BMW names it "Torx-bolt with washer" and gives its size as M6x12. It weighs 1 g (0.04 oz) and is priced and sold individually. The current number entered production in August 2006 and replaces the earlier BMW number 07-14-8-119-274, which BMW marks as exchangeable retrospectively, so the new bolt also serves cars built before 2006. It is made in Germany.

Original BMW Parts carry a 24-month parts warranty.

A Torx head takes a star-shaped driver, which grips more positively than a slotted or Phillips head, and the washer spreads clamping load over the surface beneath the bolt. BMW uses this bolt in a variety of positions depending on the chassis, so it is worth matching the old fastener before ordering. Besides the old 07-14-8-119-274 number, it cross-references to BMW numbers 51-24-8-119-274, 51-24-0-149-280, and 51-24-0-309-935. BMW's parts data shows it on the E36, E46, E8x, E9x, E39, E60, E61, E63, E64, E38, E65, E66, E84, E83, E53, E71, and E85 chassis, plus the E52 Z8.
