This set is specifically designed for VW Group vehicles from the 2013 model year onwards, including models like the Audi A3 and Volkswagen Golf.

What are the equivalent OEM part numbers?

The set is equivalent to OEM part numbers T10486A, including T10486/1 (4 off) for the rear and T10486/2 (2 off) for the front.

Does this set include pins for both front and rear subframes?

Yes, the set includes 4x M12 pins for the rear subframe and 2x M10 pins for the front subframe.

Can I use these pins on vehicles older than 2013?

This set is specifically intended for 2013 onwards models. Using it on older vehicles may not provide correct alignment or could cause damage if the mounting points differ.

Are these pins required for all subframe work?

While not always mandatory for minor adjustments, they are highly recommended, especially for tasks involving component replacement or structural work, to ensure precise original positioning and avoid alignment issues.

How should I clean and store the alignment pins?

After use, clean the pins with a dry cloth to remove debris and grease. Store them in their original case or a clean, dry tool storage area to prevent damage and loss.

What is the importance of using these pins according to OEM instructions?

Using the pins strictly in accordance with OEM instructions ensures the subframe is aligned to the manufacturer's precise specifications, which is critical for vehicle safety, handling, and the longevity of suspension components.

Troubleshooting

Pins do not fit alignment holes.

Verify you are using the correct pin size (M12 for rear, M10 for front) for your specific vehicle model and year. Confirm vehicle compatibility (VW Group 2013 onwards, Audi A3/VW Golf).

Subframe does not seem secure with pins installed.

Ensure the pins are fully seated in the alignment holes. Double-check that you are using the correct OEM equivalent procedure and that no obstructions are preventing proper seating. Consult OEM service documentation.

Difficulty removing pins after work.

Ensure all fasteners related to the subframe have been tightened to specification *before* removing the alignment pins. If stuck, gently tap with a rubber mallet. Avoid excessive force which could damage the pins or vehicle.
