A method of producing a fastening arrangement for the position-correct fastening of a component to a structural part of a motor vehicle comprises the steps: providing of the structural part; providing of a first tolerance compensation element and a second tolerance compensation element; positioning of the first tolerance compensation element, while holding the structural part firmly, relative to the structural part in a nominal position for the later position-correct fastening of the component to be fastened, and holding of the first tolerance compensation element in the nominal position, the first tolerance compensation element being positioned with a gap relative to the structural part; inserting of the second tolerance compensation element between the first tolerance compensation element and the structural part, so that the gap between the first tolerance compensation element and the structural part is bridged over; joining of the second tolerance compensation element to the first tolerance compensation element and to the structural part.

Method for producing a fastening arrangement, and such fastening arrangement

A connection arrangement for connecting two tube pieces of a crossmember for a vehicle has a first attachment element made of a first material, wherein the first attachment element is provided for a solid material-bonded connection to at least a first tube piece which comprises the first material. Furthermore, the first attachment element has a second attachment element which is fastened to the first attachment element, wherein the second attachment element consists essentially of a second material differing from the first material, wherein the second attachment element is provided for a solid material-bonded connection to a second tube piece which comprises the second material. Furthermore, a crossmember has such a connection arrangement.

Connection arrangement and crossmember

A crossbeam for a motor vehicle comprises a crossbeam body and at least one attachment device for attaching at least one vehicle component of the motor vehicle to the crossbeam, the attachment device having an attachment body which is fastened to the crossbeam body and extends in the longitudinal direction of the crossbeam body over a partial length of the crossbeam body and away from the crossbeam body in a direction transverse to the longitudinal direction, and a plurality of attachment elements being present on the attachment body. The attachment body is built up from a plurality of individual blanks which are fastened to the crossbeam body in a distributed manner over the partial length and which each extend with their longitudinal direction and with their blank area transversely to the longitudinal direction of the crossbeam body.
