HELP stripped the threads from the transmission drain pan
My friend stripped the threads from the transmission drain pan on his 1993 BMW 525i. I actually think it’s a GM transmission. Nonetheless, what is the best easy repair? Can JB Weld for Aluminum be used? Can he just tap it to the next larger size? It only takes 9 ft/lbs of torque. I don’t think there is a lot of room to helicoil. Any suggestions would be most greatly appreciated.
