The rear drop links on the mk3 seem to be a common problem to remove, as the bolt part has to be held with a small hex key while the nut is undone.

As a result I didnt over tighten the nut on mine and one has now fallen off.

Does anyone know the specification of this nut so I can buy a replacement the thread pitch looks narrower than the norm?
