Hi everyone,
I have a 2000 XJ with the aw4 which I picked up used recently. I have noticed a slight amount of oil leaking out around the oil pan on the transmission, and upon further inspection found that several of the bolts holding the pan on are stripped.
I'm wondering if anyone out there has run into this and how you have fixed it. Would simply dropping the pan and re-tapping the holes work, or do I need to use something like a heli-coil?
2 of the 3 bolts at the rear of the pan close to the transfer case are stripped and this is where most of the oil leaks out
thanks
