Car developed a misfire last night and I noticed coilpack 2 was sitting higher than the others. While it was dark I just presumed that somehow the bolt had come loose as I couldn't see it and I would just need to get hold of a replacement.

Fast forward to this morning and now that it's light I can see that the bolt has sheared off, I guess when the sparkplugs got changed a while back they must have over tightened it.

Any ideas on how to get this out? Or how much a garage is likely to bend me over to sort this out?
 
Sadly it has sheared off flush so there is no hope of getting any grips on it. Hadn't thought of trying suprrglue, guess its worth a try.
 
There isn't really access to cut a ridge into the remaining bit of bolt. Sadly i dont have any welding gear so i will have to try and get a garage to sort it.
