Default Torque - oil change
I really DID search ("Oil Change", "Oil" + "Change" + "Torque", etc. etc.)...

Could some one please tell me the torque on the oil pan bolt?

Thank You!

If you're talking about the drain plug, it says 18 ft lbs in my 02 service manual. HTH

Yes - the drain bolt. My bad should have searched drain blt as key word (when I was searching for "bolts" I kept getting "oil pan replacement" type of threads).

Have to buy a service manual....

THANKS for the reply - 18 it is!
