[QUOTE="Kelsey, post: 403711, member: 14259"] A little too much torque on the plug with a 1/2 socket and my oil pan drain threads are stripped. Does anyone know what the correct size self-tapping drain plug for an '06 is? I'd like to try this solution before I attempt a new oil pan. Thanks John Was your oil pan issue resolved? Did you put in a self tapper or go with the whole pan. I've been reading up on this because mine stripped too on my first 600 mile change. The bolt was so tight I'm convinced even if the dealer would have changed the oil I would have eventually had a leak. I'm going to battle it out tomorrow at the dealer and shoot for getting this covered. I definately got more than I bargined for on a #@##@#@ oil change! [/QUOTE]
