While changing brake pads/rotors I came across an issue. the front disc calipers are held on by T55 bolts and 1 of them is stripped where the bit fits in. I have searched for this bolt everywhere I can think of, but all I can find in parts cataloques, etc. are 6 sided bolts. I want to replace it after I manage to extract it. Anyone run into this before?

For getting it out, tap a slightly bigger Torx (a T60) or a Torx extractor bit into it with a hammer and use a breaker bar, not an impact. For a replacement, give the dealer parts counter your VIN and ask for the caliper bolt by part number. They're cheap and the new ones sometimes come with thread locker already on them.
