Oil Change

[Jjay]

okay, so ive got new oil filter and 10w40 semi synthetic for my 1.6 non sport...
Got underneath to find that the sump nut (8/10mm square) has been rounded... any ideas on how to get it out?

 

[Fred@BTM]

good luck! weld a nut to it or something

 

[Jjay]

im thinking bout that, who ever worked on the damn car b4 was an idiot! has rounded almost EVERY single bolt on the car, i give up!

have you not got a decent garage local to you that could look at it?

 

[MicKPM]

Mole grips *might* just be able to clamp on or try inserting a slighly larger allen key in. Just go easy though as the sump is alloy and will break if you go at it all ginger!
