What is this!!!

From the front drivers side, as soon I opened the splash guard (to replace AC clutch) this bolt dropped on the floor. Is this from suspension???
What is it exactly???!!!

Re: What is this!!!

that looks like a motor mount bolt, the mount that goes from between your timing belt to the strut tower area on the drivers side

if you look at the drivers side motor mount from the top, you will probably see an empty hole where that bolt should be,

and another bolt just like that one still installed, unless both have fallen out

Re: What is this!!!

Last time when there was a Head Gasket job done (i got it done at a shop), they replaced the Mount Bolts. That was the first place i looked at yesterday, when i found this bolt. So when they replaced both the bolts, one of them fell down into the chasis & i found it yesterday lol
