E36 M52 Help Needed
We're attempting to remove the engine but before we can disengage the tranny, we have to pull the starter. Unfortunately these E-torx bolts are a pain in the ass and we've basically rounded out the splines on this last one. Short of pulling the front clip and driveshaft, what suggestions do you guys have to get this bolt out?
