Oil pan issue, need some advice
Hey guys,
New to the forum :) I own a 2009 Chevy Colorado 2.9L LT. I just came across an issue today with my oil pan. The threading on my oil pan for my oil plug was stripped and someone re-threaded it without me knowing. Now the threading has come off and I am not able to find any sort of plug to that will do the job. Should I replace the oil pan or get it re-threaded?? Not really sure what to do, I've never had this happen and never heard of it happening to anyone I know. Thanks in advance,  Jamie |

Most auto parts stores carry rubber expandable oil drain plugs that can be used to temporarily get you going. Buy Dorman - Autograde Oil Drain Plug Universal 1/2 Inch / M12 65200 at Advance Auto Parts You should replace the oil pan for a permanent, reliable fix. The Part Number for the oil pan is 12600499 and should be available online for $125-$150. Check gmpartsdirect or gmpartsgiant.
