Name that lost bolt!

Found this on the plastic engine undertray. Possible engine mount bolt?

Oh that's your spare bolt. Same as the spare buttons that are sewn into your sport jacket. It's just in case you need one.




Really though, the size is about right, but on not sure of that head. Someone will recognize it, I'm sure.

Yeah I asked my brother, who was the key player in the recent turbo swap (6 months ago) and he said he thinks it is a motor mount.

Is this something that I can get to from underneath? It is a 2009 335xi MT.

It's not a motor mount bolt. The rubber mount to sub frame has a long head and the mount to engine block are larger.

I will add that there are not many fasteners used that have a washer attached. Most are usually flanged bolts without the washer.

Yeah, after doing some looking around I seen that it probably wasn't a motor mount either.

I think it might be a power steering bolt.
