Hello everyone,
I have an 2011 Journey with a v6 I've changed the oil pan because they *whom ever did maintenance before* torqued the pan plug too tight, so it ended up being rounded off. I removed the pan. Everything went normally while I was tightening the bolts that secure the pan to the engine, then one of the bolts snapped, mind you this happened a few months ago, and its about time to change the oil again.
I've been meaning to switch/repair this bolt, but am having a hard time finding a part number for it. I have a few questions:
1. What will be the easiest way to extract the snapped bolt?
1.a what size extractor will be ideal?
2. What size or part number are the bolt/s I need for the repair?
3. Is it advisable to just go ahead and get a pan gasket to help alleviate the slight leak I am having now ?
Thanks for your time!!
