Hi all,

I was attempting to do a home alignment on my 914 this weekend (what a pain in the arse!). When I got to the rear to adjust the toe, I crawled under to loosen the 3 bolts holding the trailing arm on.

Two of the bolts were a standard 15mm, but one was what looks to be a 12 point Torx type thingy. Is this correct? Does anybody know what size 12point bit I need? Should it even be there? Or am I looking at the wrong bolts altogether (I'm pretty sure I'm not)? I have the 12 point CV tool, but I think this one is bigger. So, whats the dealio?
