whilst changing water pump on 2004 c3 desire, the bolt into the housing which is threaded to take the bolt for the cover, sheared.
this meant that i had to remove the housing and currently attempting to drill it out.
meanwhile i have been trying to access a bolt (and housing just in case) online but am getting nowhere.
any help appreciated.

How awkward was it to remove the casing. Mines done the same? (top bolt on water pump) Looks a bit of a pig to get off
