Transmission Filler Bolt Ruined!

[RIPae86]

Hi there

I was going to check change the oil for the gearbox for the first time having the car and I found the filler bolt extremely rounded off

Is there any other place or method i could use to fill up the gearbox oil?

Thanks

Get a stud removal tool or easy out on it, or you can get someone out to do it - same people that pull out snapped exhaust studs

is there still an extended part of the plug there that you could possibly stick pair of stilsens on to try and undo?

Ive tried stilsens in the past, it just made things worst. Got desperate once and welded a socket onto a bolt lol.

Even if I do take it off and fill it up I just realised I can't put the filler bolt back in or i'll have the same problem next time.

I'll suss out pick a part for a bolt that can fit before I try anything or take it to a shop.

Thanks for the help!
