Yep ive just gone to do a oil change and the threads came out with the bolt so I must of been a plonker and over tightend it last time ....... anyway theres no thread left whatsoever any ideas? How did you sort it ?

What 66T said. Get a helicoil and the jobs done...too easy. In future go easy on those three bolts, they're easily stripped.

Cheers bud jobs sorted retapped it to m8 then when I tried to flush the swarf out I realised its actualy hollow and goes into the engine so then I stripped the crancase off got rid of the swarf and put it all back together again and its all fine . Thanks for replying
