Oil Pan Replacement Price
Recently did an oil change an I stripped the oil pan plug. I used an oversized bolt. I thought I fixed the problem but noticed oil leaking. Took it to the stealership and they said it is also leaking from the seals. They qouted me $335 out the door for a replacement pan. Does this sound reasonable? I thought it would take about an hour and should be more in the $200 range.They mentioned the seal have to cure before they put oil into the car does this sound correct.

the oil pan is 80 bucks. They use Honda Bond. Its a liquid gasket (best stuff you can buy) and does need to cure before starting.

You might want to call around and see if any shops in your area could put a thread insert into your pan. I personally like the time sert brand as it's a solid insert with a little flange that recesses into whatever you're repairing.

I was trying to loosen up the oil pan bolt, I most have gone the wrong way. I finally got it of as it was on tight the bolt had steel shaving that looked like the thread of the oil pan. I found a local guy that will do the replacement job for $80.
