Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I've managed to reserve into a very annoyingly angled curb. Initially I was quite pleased with myself, because I had a look and couldn't see on the damage on the rear PU. I've subsequently noticed that it was my rear exhaust tip that took one for the team, because it's about 1-2cm further back than it used to be. No problem, I thought, I'll just undo the bolt and pull it back out and tighten it again. So.... Lots of WD40 (as it was quite corroded) and the bolt started to undo and then just completely fell apart. I'm now left with a bolt that has part of the screw thread in it and the exhaust tip which is still attached the exhaust via the remaining corroded screw....which is stuck solid. Any ideas as to: a) How I get the screw removed (without damaging the exhaust) b) How I get the exhaust tip off (without damaging the exhaust) c) How I get a replacement bolt/screw fitted I'm thinking I might just take it up to the Byfleet, as I need to get my seat fixed + the rear discs/pads replaced....but wondered whether it was a relatively easy DIY job in the meantime. Cheers.

Use a dremel with the extension handle and disc cutter to carefully cut off the bolt or the actual clamp. The clamp is only about £5.
