Oem air cleaner problem !

So today i changed my air filter.
When i was getting the bolts out ( 7 bolts ), one ( the middle front one) slipped from my hand and felt besides a injector under the fuel rail ( i think) . Do you think it can cause a problem...drove the car today o problem, i'm thinking it must have felt somewhere on the road.

Thanks guys
Sry for my english

Re: Oem air cleaner problem !

no problem, as long as it doesnt go near the moving belts. theres nothing it can damage by being there. just get a new bolt for the air cleaner. and you know you dont have to completely remove the bolts right? just 1/2 way out, and the housing pulls off with the bolts still inside.

Hooray someone replied to me. Thanks gearbox.
Didn't know that about the bolts.
Got a new one the same day.
I cant see the bolt anymore drove the car yesterday without a problem !
I think it fell somewhere on the road...took some pretty steep hills.

Thanks
