Anyone know the thread designation for the ATF drain bolt?
I noticed a drip coming from my ATF draing bolt yesterday. I tried to torque the bolt up again but the transmission housing is stripped. Just getting a small drip at the moment. I want to order a form thread tap to fix without removing and measuring.
Thanks,
Thanks,

Thanks, I found that too. I need the thread pitch to order a tap. I ordered taps in the past only to find out the thread was a finer thread than standard.

ATF Thread Designation
I measured the thread size on Saturday. M18 x 1.5pitch. Autozone had a 18mm oil plug with seal that had longer thread with hex head. Luckily the extra thread length worked. Not enough thread left to tap for origional plug. I will have to put a heli-coil in on next ATF change.
