Vacuum Pump Bolts size (Help!)

Hi Everyone,

My wife just purchased a 2009 Mini Clubman, and I'm doing a lot of repairs this weekend. Water pump, Oil filter housing seals, valve cover, plugs. I carefully bagged and labeled all the fasteners as I removed them because I a new to Mini.

I doing the re-assemble and I can't find the bolts for vacuum pump. I either misplaced the bag, or accidentally mixed them with some other fasteners.

Does anyone know what size bolts hold vacuum pump?

Thanks in advance,
Lou

Nik,

Thanks for the help. I determined the bolts are M6x25 from the link you posted. I believe the original bolts have 8mm heads, but I couldn't find these at local parts store. I used cap head M6x25 with 10mm heads. Hopefully this will be trouble free, but I can always order the correct part it the vacuum pump leaks.

Thanks Again,
Lou
