GL Oil Pan Leaks Like a Sieve?


Recommended Posts

Go to Ebay and buy longer and also high strength bolts.  What you have in their now are the soft M6-1.0 x 13 mm long bolts.  If you tighten them, they snap off.  Go with the 10.9 high strength grade flare head bolts in the 16 mm length and tighten them up until you can't tighten them anymore.  This will really cut back on the oil pan leaks.  At the back of the oil pan, you can do some light grinding of the cross frame in order to get a 1/4" socket set in there with some swivel end attachments.  It requires a 10 mm end socket and you would want the 1/4" version of that.
