I was changing the oil in my 2002 BMW 525i. After draining the oil, I broke the oil pan bolt while tightening it. Will this extractor remove the bolt?

Hi Marcus, yes these extractors will remove the broken bolt. i bought this set and successfully removed a broken head bolt on my Honda Civic..

yes, it will. just be sure to center the drill bit as precisely as possible. Remember, the bit is reverse thread, so your drill will have to be turning counter clockwise. Drill SLOWLY so that you don't overheat and ruin the bit. Use plenty of WD 40 or something similiar to keep the bit cool. When extracting broken fasteners, patience is a virtue. Don't allow yourself to be hurried. Good luck to you

Your hand, if have to use a wrench, you might want to look at your auto store for a oil filter remover tool, its like a zip tie the wraps around the oil filter. It sounds also like you(or someone else) put the oil filter on to tight, look in your manual or search it for corect amount of presuure. When replace mine I usually do a 3/4 turn on the filter when it is screwed on and just made contact with the engine.

Yes, this should do the trick. Use the size that's almost, but a tad bit smaller, than the bolt you're attempting to extract.

If you are doing it yourself, you wont be able to extract ALL the fluid, almost half of it gets inside the torque converter, valve body etc. and when you remove the drain plug, you are just draining whtas in the pan. Measure the amount of fluid you take out and refill with that same amount. Doing a google search its a good idea to make yourself clear. Luck

I had a broken bolt ( on a thermostat housing ) rusted old. I used liquid wrench on the stud (left over bolt ). I used a power lug nut remover with the puller and it backed out the stud. Worked for me perfect. I was worried the puller would slip on the stud, but it just backed out the broken bolt - The puller is in my tool box if in the future another bolt snaps off. I would recommend this puller as it did the job.

No, but you might try a little gun oil if you can get the bolt free. Just in case you need to return yours for repairs, I had to send mine back to repair the seal and I was satisfied with the repairs and turnaround time.

I depends on the what the oil level shows as. On my 1999 BMW 328ic I needed to remove oil before adding, but it was over the level anyway.

No T bar is needed. You can use one if you want. most of the time you will use a wrench for the extra torque needed to remove a stuck broken bolt. There are 2 types of broken bolt one that is torqued to hard and broke the head off. and the other is a broken bolt because the threads are rusted. Most of the time the reverse brill bit will remove the first one with out the extractor simply by drilling into it. The second type you should use heat and penetrating oil before attempting extraction.

I have not used the machine in months. I'm pretty sure it was a normal counter clockwise oil plug(I'm not positive). I had to use pliers to get it off. Just be careful not to break plastic. Pliers should be able to grab it around the outside, even if the plastic is broken. Hope this helps a little.

It should come right off. Apply something like WD-40, let it sit for enough time to let the oil work. If the oil hasn't worked tap it with a hammer from different angles to help release it.

BMW dealer removes it every time they wash my car. I was advised to remove it. Haven't done it yet

I really doubt it. The twist of the inside 'threads' of the tool only bite into the bolt head when turned counterclockise. Try carefully filing the bolt head to fit a smaller wrench. Worth the effort if you ever need to remove it again. Or look for a tool with a set screw arrangement or a cam action. A very small pipe wrench might work, too. Best of luck, Michael.

That was my expectation BUT the kit did absolutely NOTHING to allow removal of the nut. I eventually cut the bolt using a root zip. I found the anchor kit a complete waste of money!

Well you will break the plugs, what I find is this tool help to loosing the plugs, after you loosing them try to soak them overnight. Soaking works sometime. Trust me you will break some plugs, this is where you need the lisle spark plug extractor also. And please be very patient (do not use impact), I tried and this method almost cause me big money. Good luckps I changed my plugs at 181km, they were do this job was a three year put off, but I got it done thank god!!!.

These extractors are only designed to remove damaged right hand thread fasteners. They would work to tighten a fastener that is left hand thread, but will most likely damage it's flats. If you could find left hand thread bolt/nut extractors, they would most likely be able to tighten a right hand thread fastener.

Yes, it has a an extractor that would fit a 3/4 bolt head. The bolt, particularly if softer metal, will be generally unusable after using the extractor.
