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.

A new pan at Autozone is 156 bucks and only a couple bucks for the gasket. If you want to fix it yourself it wouldn't be that hard. Should only be drain, remove, replace, refill. Google will have exact steps for you.
