Claim 0:
1. A tolerance compensation arrangement for fastening a first component to a second component with automatic compensation of tolerances in the distance between the first component and the second component, comprising the following features:
a. a base unit with
a1. a cage element comprising a first passage opening on the inside as well as a fastening structure on its outer side for fastening in the first component,
a2. a base element which is arranged with a first axial end in the cage element and comprises an inner thread at the opposite second axial end, and
a3. a nut, which is arranged rotationally fixed and in a floatingly beared manner in the cage element adjacent to the first axial end of the base element, wherein the nut provides an inner thread, and

b. an adjustment unit comprising a threaded sleeve with an outer thread and a dragging element arranged therein with at least one radially inwardly projecting spring arm, wherein the outer thread of the threaded sleeve forms with the inner thread of the nut a first thread pairing of a first thread direction, wherein
c. the adjustment unit comprises an axial extension opposite to the first thread direction, which forms with the base unit a screwing out protection of the adjustment unit, while
d. a fastening screw is insertable through an opening of the base unit and of the adjustment unit, which fastening screw is screwable into the inner thread of the base element by means of a second thread pairing of a second thread direction opposite to the first one and is connectable to the adjustment unit via the dragging element by a releasable dragging connection, so that, when the fastening screw is screwed in, the adjustment unit is co-rotated and thereby moved into abutment with the second component.
