Hi i have an R Reg renault master 2.8 tdi.
the gearbox bolts keep coming loose and on occations the bolts fall out. i keep tightning them up but this is now getting serious as the gearbox could fall out.
i have tried lock tight but cannot find the right bolts, im assuming the threds are knackered so keep putting odd sized bolts in is just going to get more complicated.
any other suggestions please.
cheers chris
Bit of an odd one but I do like a challenge....how about getting some threaded studding and araldite, clean out the threaded hole with carb cleaner, and stick the studding into the damaged threaded hole? The studding can then be cut to length after the adhesive has dried, and a nut and washer put on.
