205 GTi Borken Manifold stud

Sep 04, 2005 2 Replies

Hi Folks Sussed why the engine sounded like a tractor! One of the bottom studs on the back of the head for the exhaust manifold has bust and left the remains of the stud in the head. So, the air box needs to come off and the manifold off too but what are my chances of getting the broken stud out without having to take the head off? Anyone ever had this prob before? Cheers all Gareth


Had the same problem with mine, and oddly enough a guy at a coachworks center did it for me insitue... and for only £50.. nice guy !!!

He's doing my rear beam today :-)

Blimey!! Where do you live?!!!
