I think the number you need is 352278, Fitted a couple a few weeks ago and I got the number from the empty bag that was still in my workshop. Sure thats what it is but worth a check with your supplier

We can help if you need an original genuine part number, part diagram or vehicle factory build sheet and can't already find the info you need on the Forum. For this service, we do ask for a membership upgrade for official parts data as we are in turn charged for this. It will cover you for future part number requests for up to 3 years *, so excellent value.

We do NOT provide Technical Documentation or Wiring Diagrams as part of this Service! We may only help with these if Staff already have them.

* Please note that the FCF can only provide this service to donating members for as long as the Stellantis Group provide access to us.

If interested, links are below, then provide your vehicle's VIN in full, which will be masked automatically when you submit your post.

Possibly 352278 - £7.21 from the dealer. Post the VIN and we can confirm.

Not long ago had to change my wishbone and had the same issue with the same bolt. I cleaned the thread if the bolt. There were shards of ally in it where, I'm guessing, it had been rattle gunned it previously. Also you'll need to run a tap into the thread on the wishbone. Can't remember the size but it isn't a standard thread, it's finer.

Notice the BX is still top the list but sadly gone

Yes mate its fine thread and mine is completely messed up dont want to put it in new control arm, its a very tight hole around the bolt it can get damaged even by rubbing on the sub frame as it goes out, anyway blody hard to find new one, only FAG brand sell control arms with new bolt set, but not going to buy it just for the bolt obviously

Part no for bolt 14 is 352252 = £4.58

Says M12 x 1.25 thread x 30.5mm with captive washer. I imagine it is 8.8 spec at least - might be difficult to track down something so short elsewhere other than the dealer.
