Ive looked through the a1 owners manual and it says to extract the shear pin by using the m3 tool. Ive threaded the m3 tool into the shear pin and ive pulled and twisted a little bit. Im worried to do anything else because I dont want to do something wrong. Has anyone removed this shear pin? My valve stem was leaking like crazy so i pulled it out and looked at it. It was all jagged, not smooth where it seals. So i shaved it down flat with an exacto knife and checked the lpr. It was at 60 on the dot. It was still leaking a lil bit so i went and bought the newest valve stem released by WDP. Put that in and im still getting a leak from the valve. I just want to pop the valve out and check the o-rings on the valve.

Some are little tight, try pressing in the end plug assembly and then pulling out the pin. Some are a bear, don't give up it will come out

So yea. LOL in the process i broke the m3 tool off at the threads. Had to drill a small hole in that, then my drill bit broke. Finally spent 20$ on some decent titanium bits. Those worked, used a screw extractor to get the broken tool out. Rick at RJ performance was able to pull the sear pin out after heating it up.
