Drain Plug Won't come out help pls

[b*saint]

Its fucking aluminum. Pull and turn. Then put a helicoil in it.

i would just drop the pan and try to hammer out the plug from the inside. im sure u can get a used oil pan for cheap if absolutely necessary.

Take a torch to it, or actually get your hands dirty and pull the thing out.

A torch to the oil pan? don't know about that...

[chadthestampede]

DRILL A NEW HOLE. no really.

M20 pan is easy to take off if you have patience

I would not think replacing the lower pan on that car would be difficult. I don't know how the M20 pan looks but the M10 one is quite easy to get to.

I'm screwed, I guess I'm going for a new oil pan

[jlevie]

Vice grips pulling and turning should get the plug out. Then a Timesert to repair the threads in the pan (the pan need not be removed to install the Timesert).

[b*saint]

vice grip it and pull down while turning.

I think you went to the wrong mechanic.
Try the first technique harder.

[rj1790]

yep, sounds like the pan is stripped. Try to get a screwdriver under the head of the plug and then turn the plug with a wrench, this will sometimes get to clear threads and help getting it out. for a replacement, get an oversized plug, most parts stores carry them behind the counter for these "oh shit" moments

I tried that no luck. I went to my mechanic and he's quoted me 600$ for a new oil pan and labor to install it. I think I'm screwed
