Oil change-Oil drain plug does not come off
The oil drain plug keeps turning but does not come out. I double-checked this and its actually turning but just does not come off.
Any ideas?? |

You try to pull on it and turn it? Apply pressure to it amd see if it'll catch the threads.

Should I go get a new bolt in the meantime or are the oil pan threads done and whole oil pan needs to be replaced? |

hopefully its just the bolt threads that are striped, id get a new bolt just incase and hopefully the pan you can retap it if the threads are bad
