Front bumper torx screw spinning

Featured Replies

Hi guys I recently tried to take my bumper off.

Got all the screws off apart from one of the T30 sized torxs next to the headlights

It seems the screw and the bottom part inside are both spinning.

Is it going to be a drill out and rethread job or is this a common issue with an easier fix?

Any help ASAP would be appreciated.

It's not a nut that's spinning, it's just a push-on spring type speednut that's turning, try and get a bit of pressure under the screw head to force the screw out when turning, you will have to be forceful to get it out, they are easy to replace afterwards.

I use an old toothbrush in my tin of copper grease and always brush a little copper grease into each speednut before replacing.
