Changing the oil today and the thread stripped in the sump and I wasn't using any excess force. 50,000kms and I've changed the oil every 5,000 so it has been in and out around 10 times. So question is, has anyone removed the sump and can it be done with engine in situ (fingers crossed). Also is it just the 14 bolts around the edge and oil pipe at rear, or are there any hidden ones or tricks to getting it off. TIA, John.
