Sheared bolt in the clutch pressure plate

Hi Drew,

Does indeed sound like you had a 'tired' bolt. Time to replace all 4 perhaps?

If wanting to improve the tool inventory the (typical) screw extractor kit may be an option.. just depends on how many more jobs your planning!

As you say, finding a torque for the 4 bolts is not easy... the 1st below is for the 750K2 lock nut.

The 2nd pic is for 'generic' bolts from my 750K2 manual... the 4 clutch bolts are 6x20 and the same part # as the K2

Good luck,
Simon

Drew400:
Thanks Lobo,

I may be investing soon and certainly will use a set of new bolts.

Cheers,

D.

Update... the offending bolt is out. Was very easy and thus confirmed that I hadn't over-tightened it or else it would have been jammed at the bottom of its chamber.

So, I'm now asking DS if they have a set of new ones and will only tighten them to Lobo's generic suggestion.

Only a slight delay to my project progress.

Cheers all.

D.

Wel done getting them out Drew, big sigh of relief I'll bet! If all you want is those bolts from DSS, by the time you've added p+p and vat on the lot, it'll be expensive! Try a local hardware store,or even the Robin B'Stards at B&Q, theyre are just normal M6 bolts, 20mm long, easy to find, and cheap!:))
