Well, well, well, I seem to be on a losing streak. I went to the auto part's store and bought a new torx-40 (lifetime guarantee). I returned to the car ready to conquer the oil pan. WRONG!!!!! The first torx screw head stripped, I was able to loosen the 3rd and 4th and the 5th caused my torx to roll the torx teeth as the first one haWhy on earth would these screws be so tight?? My only option, as far as I can see, is to drill the heads off the ones I can't get out. I have JB Welded the broken piece back onto the oil pan hoping I might get lucky with that. I don't want to waste anymore time on it until I get the tranny in it and know that it is going to work.
