Installing CORSA Exhaust - Bolt Broke Help!

[tuesk]

Hi!

I was trying to install a CORSA exhaust on my friend's 2023 Wildtrak, the first thing that happens, the bolt between the head pipe and the flex pipe snapped!

does anybody know the part number? I can't seem to find it

Bolt between the head pipe and flex pipe…?

Do you have a picture of what you’re talking about?

You mean this bolt?

one broke and i stopped and left the other on

the nut took the stud with it, the back is flat though

Is that a pressed in exhaust bolt?

Some older vehicles use a double-ended stud there with nuts on either end.

Honestly, any bolt you can get to fit the hole will work in a pinch - just realize it's gonna get hot, and probably not want to come back out without breaking (as you have found out)

i think its a pressed in bolt, still have the other one in there but im guessing there isn't a part number for this im guessing i didnt have enough heat to free it up, but now i have to get that broken stud out

Yeah the stud is not available separately.
I deal with broken studs like this all the time at work. The easiest way to remove it IMO is getting it very hot with a torch, then using an air hammer with a pointy bit to push it out. They’re usually stuck in there pretty good.
