I drive my van 3,000 miles/year. I change the oil once a year. No leaks. Dry as a bone for 11 years. I got my van back from my trusty service garage. Ever since I have a small stain of oil on my driveway. The SOBs have stripped the GD drain plug ! I have glanced over the many messages of stripped drain plugs, but need advice. What is the best way to approach my garage on this matter? Play no nothing motorist and ask what's the new oil puddle? Or go after them and demand the fix ! Can the base be re threaded with a tap? How big a deal is a Heli-coil to install. Thanks
