[QUOTE="thejinx, post: 611780, member: 15775"] Update, drilled it out with 5mm drill bit. slowly slowly catchy monkey. Once the drill bit bit into the stud it didn't take long to get through it. then tried an extractor which wasn't playing so went to an 8mm drill bit and did the same. So the stud as far as i am concerned is out, with bits of swarf and metal left in the threads. i am borrowing a tap this weekend to clean the threads as there is still bits in the hole so hopefully this will cure my issue and allow me to get on with the original job which was change the seal and check end float. Question does the stud go all the way through the case as i have only drilled as deep as i think the other stud is in? [/QUOTE]
