  1. 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!!
