Re: oil pan bolt won't come off
which counterclock wise are you turning the bolt? i have never heard of anyone needing a breaker bar for a 1/2" long bolt...stop and get help before you need a new oil pan.
also fucking lol for getting neg rep in this thread

Re: oil pan bolt won't come off
and to answer everybody's question on why i think i can't get it unscrewed is cause i used to let my neighbor do it, and i think he used like a special drill or something to unscrew/screw this kind of things...
i would ask him to do it, but i just don't want him anywhere near my car anymore.
i've tried heating the car up for like 10 minutes as well... and i'm 99.9% positive it's the oil drain screw. after the first time it didn't budge, i was like wtf, time to look at the manual, and the manual said it is... lol
i have some wd40, but i read one some forum that it's dangerous to use that stuff on the oil pan.
i can't kick it either, well i can, but the car is on ramps...
this might be a stupid question, but where could i get a breaker bar? will lowes or home depo. have it or i have to go to a special car store? (pep boys/autozone)

Re: oil pan bolt won't come off
can you take a picture of what you are wrenching on before going any further please. the oil drain bolt should be a 17mm (open ended wrench if you have one) and maybe a 1/4-1/2 turn and its loose.
