So i went to mr lube because i had no way of getting oil on my own to do the change myself... but lets not get into that
so i went there and got my oil change with mobile 1 5w30 (not high mileage) and now my oilpan is leaking like mad... i called and they claimed they never touched the oil pan bolts only the drain plug... there's a mess on my exhaust... a mess on my oil pan... and its dripping all over the road in 4 different places. prior to this i could go 6,500kms without losing an 1/8th of a liter of oil.. |

well the thing is when u tighten them your destroyed the seal... the gasket gets hard and brittle... as long as it isn't TOUCHED it doesn't leak because its still sealing... but of course if they had tightene it then it would leak because it would become deformed. the only thing i can do it tighten the drain plug
