Exhaurst stud snaped. - Hdiestate - 23-03-2013

Hi all 3 weeks ago a mate decated my hdi and we
Done the middle box mod but at the same time we fixed
The stud on the down pipe that had snaped. It was hard to
Get to but we managed to weld a stud back on. All was good for
A week then couple af weeks ago i noticed it didnt have the same
Response as when we first done the mod. Looked at it 2day and
Found the stud snaped again. is there anythink i can do apart
From try a bigger stud and nut?

Drill the stud out and nut and bolt it


RE: Exhaurst stud snaped. - Hdiestate - 23-03-2013

Ye thorght that but its a bit to get the drill we got in there

What stud did you snap the one off the turbo?


RE: Exhaurst stud snaped. - Hdiestate - 23-03-2013

Ye mate. Are the suspose to have springs on?


RE: Exhaurst stud snaped. - Ben hdi306 - 23-03-2013

Yes for when the engine moves, why don't u take the stud out, it happen to me on mine feel up to we're it meets the turbo and there is a 10mm nut, un do it and use a 13mm bolt to hold your exhuast on that's what I did for both sides of it.

Hope this helps!

Ye thats the 1 mate but mine snaped the other end. Just the thread left in the hole.


RE: Exhaurst stud snaped. - Ben hdi306 - 23-03-2013

Hmm only thing is to try and drill it out but ill doubt you'll get a drill in there. Can't think of any other way your going to sort it out tbh


RE: Exhaurst stud snaped. - Hdiestate - 23-03-2013

Ye i no mate. I think im gonna try that drill straight thu
And nut and bolt it.


RE: Exhaurst stud snaped. - Hdiestate - 15-04-2013

Went to a garage 2day to get a quote to remove the
Broken stud an rhey sed they cnt do it. I thoirght it
Would of been easyer. Im going to give it ago. Im going
To put a soket on the bottom of a drill bit and use extension
Bars.

When i get it out i mean if i get it out can i just nut and bolt
Both sides?? Or will the movement of the engine just snap then
Again??
Cheers

Will be fine using a but and bolt, just be a bit awkward.

A whole new fitting kit costs about £7 from the motor factors, including new studs, springs, washers and basket gasket.


RE: Exhaurst stud snaped. - Hdiestate - 15-04-2013

Ye i know mate but when i drill it out there isnt nothink for the new stud to screw into.


RE: Exhaurst stud snaped. - Poodle - 15-04-2013

Ah yeah good point, missed the bit where you say it snapped at the other end. Blush


RE: Exhaurst stud snaped. - Hdiestate - 15-04-2013

No probs mate thanks anyway.
