:x

so i am trying to change the oil for the first time on my mazda
i have done it countless times on other cars

the trouble is the bolt holding all the oil in
the dealership must have super tightened it so i cant get it off

any advice?

i am gonna go get the dealership to do it one more time (they do it for free)

the bolt is definitely damaged from being overtightened (the washers bows in)

so i am gonna tell them to #1 put on a new bolt and washer cause that one will cause it to leak eventually and #2 tighten it by hand and not with an air powered socket

it will save them money anyway cause all i pay for when i go to the dealership is the oil filter so i dont think they will have a problem doing that

eh?
