loctite was added at the factory and Bentley says to use "sealing paste"
"Coat threads and contact surfaces of bolt head with sealing paste AMV 188 001 02."

got it out!!! no locktite look.
MY boss quenched the bolt in water twice i thought it was going to crack like an egg when he put the gun on it 900 pounds of torque the bolt drew in so much pb blaster over the week it was dripping. moral of the story is don't take your car to an un reputable dealer it cost us 7,000 to get to this stage 2,000 just in the labor on the bolt. also for any others doing this job the bolt has a lip that caught in the pulley it acts like a washer but this one acted like cement. lastly every 80000 miles on the old cars not 150000. thank you all that replied.
