An tolerance compensation element with which tolerances in the distance between a first component and a second component are compensable, with the tolerance compensation element comprising:
- a. a double threaded bolt with a first axial thread section and a second axial thread section with opposite convolution direction, which are separated from one another by means of a supporting shoulder arranged between the first axial thread section and the second axial thread section, and
- b. adjacent to the first axial thread section, a retaining section with a dragging element arranged thereon is provided in a direction facing away from the supporting shoulder, the retaining section being adapted to co rotate the tolerance compensation element via the dragging element in a friction fit and/or form fit manner by means of an inner thread of a female thread element matching the first axial thread section, so that a distance between the first component and the second component is automatically bridgeable by means of the tolerance compensation element.
