Hi there,
I recently did an oil change and I thought I'd replace the sump plug with the Gold uprated sump plug, as I placed the new bolt it, it felt really tight, when I removed the plug it dragged out a sleeve which the thread was on, It seems different to a helicoil although I could be wrong,
I think as I tightened the bolt it snagged inside the sleeve and dragged the sleeve into the sump, would this be a case of getting a helicoil and just threading that in instead?
Would using some kind of glue or metal bond be ok to try and attempt to stick this thread into the sump then tighten the bolt flush with the thread?
I've attached a photo to see if it helps clear what I'm on about
Thanks in advance!
