Oil Pan
Story: Took my 2002, Chrysler 300m in for service – oil change etc. Dealer says someone put a replacement oil plug in the oil pan and I need to replace the whole pan. It drips about a half cup of oil every couple of months. I don’t like the oil drips but $400 for a new pan seems a bit much.
Am I getting the runaround here?BBQASUS P8Z68-V PRO; i7 2600k @ 4.1GHz; Kingston HyperX 16 GB @ 1866; Mushkin Enhanced Callisto Deluxe 90GB SSD with Win7 Home Premium 64bit; OCZ Vertex 2 SATA II 2.5" SSD 60GB - Programs; 2 WD 2 TB Caviar Green RAID1; WD 2 TB Cavier Green in external USB3 case;EVGA FTW 670 GTX; Acer 22 inch Widescreen; PSU: Ultra 4x 1050

That is as long as the oil won't break down the teflon tape but I wouldn't think it would.
I could be wrong though.New rig.

I use teflon when doing plumbing work. Not sure how oil would react either.
