I have a jeep liberty05 and my oil pan drain plug was put in by last owner so tightly i had to use an irwin east out in doin so with my impact the inside threade piece that the plug screws into broke off and is no rollin around inside the pan so i need toremove the oil pan to replace and i need to no how to do this and how difficult this will be

If you don't see a plug on the drain pan under the transmission then that means you will need to remove the screws around the pan on the bottom of the transmission to get the oil out. You will need to replace the gasket when you put the pan back on.

Whether it's an engine oil pan (called the 'sump'' in the UK) or a transmission oil pan the principle is the same on all vehicles.
1. Drain the oil

2. Remove the bolts holding the sump/pan in place:

The oil drain plug, though depending on your vehicle it may look different:
New gasket held in place with sealant
Use a blunt screwdriver -if needed - and prise the oil pan free. remove all traces of the old gasket from the mating surfaces.

Use a smear of sealant to hold the new gasket in the correct position on the pan - this will hold it in place when you refit the pan.

Push the pan into position and put in a front bolt finger-tight. Then put in a rear bolt finger-tight.

Putting in the bolts finger-tight allows you to gently 'move' the pan if needed to put the bolts in one at a time.

When all bolts are in, tighten them with a wrench/socket. Then check them all again for tightness.

It isn't actually a big job .. more 'messy' because of the oil.

jack it up, drain oil from drain plug on oil pan when drained remove and replace oil filter also. remove the pan bolts pull off pan and gasket.put new oil pan gasket on if needed.when oil pan bolts are back in, screw them in hand tight, then torque them down to specs and alter nate the tightening so it wont damage pan seal. any auto parts store can tell you the torque on the bolts for your car. good day!

Oil drain plug is on the lower, side of the engine oil pan(there's only one bolt located there). Your jeep oil requirements will depend on which size engine you have in there.

You will first need the appropriate tools and equipment on hand before you start. A jack and jack stands to support your vehicle on both sides a wheel chock is always a good idea too. A drain pan to catch waste oil, An oil filter removal tool and either a wrench or ratchet and socket to remove your oil pan drain plug Don't forget your replacement oil filter and manufacturers recommended grade of oil to use. 1st rule be safe change oil when vehicle is not at full operating temp or oil may burn you. When your vehicle is raised and properly supported, open your hood, remove oil cap to allow venting, then underneath vehicle, place drain pan beneath oil pan drain plug and remove plug and set it aside. Allow oil to drain completely then reinstall drain plug and tighten without overtightening. Next place drain pan below oil filter and remove filter, install new filter (tighten by hand 1/4 turn after it feels snug (Do Not overtighten as this will destroy rubber seal and you will have a big mess on your hands) Refill oil with correct amount and weight of motor oil (see owners manual if needed) If you got any oil on vehicle I would clean it off before starting it otherwise start vehicle check for leaks, if all is good removie vehicle from jack stands and check oil level on flat ground to ensure it is full

first off make sure u have some old rags or a roll of blue shop towels works best. u need to be sure u have enough oil probly five or six quarts. make sure u got ur filter. u may need a filter wrench, not alway but they can stick tight. also a drain pan and a wrench for the oil plug.
first take the key and put it in ur pocket, thats good to do no matter what ur working on because that way no one will start it if your not around or worse under it. ok warm up the engine. carfull not to burn your self but the hotter the better when draining oil. hot oil drains better hot, but hurts on skin.lol. but that how we do it in every shop. ok now take ur drain pan and plug wrench. also a rag. probly fourteen or fifteen mm crawl under the front and look for the plug in the bottom of the oil pan, the big pan right at the bottom of the engine lossen the plug.remember righty tighty, lefty loosy now put the pan under and unscrew the plug all the way and make sure ur oil is going in the pan. now u should still be holding the plug, thats where the rag is needed because its still hot and ur hand will start to burn after a few seconds. ok now if u can see the filter from down there go ahead and take it off. if not go up to the top and do it there. but put the pan under it before you do. ok now u have the filter and oil out give it ten or so to drip. clean the plug good and put it back in. tighten it down right away. never leave a plug not tight. its not a i will get it in a minute kinda thing. never put in an oil plug and not tighten it down. i have seen it happen before. not good. ok now with the new oil filter u need to take some new oil ,just a few drops will do, and coat the ruber ring. then carfully. carfully. carfully put it back in place and screw it tight. carfully i stress. if u miss pull it back out and clean the dirt off. its just like spark plugs. if u miss clean the dirt. u dont want that in ur engine. now tighten by hand and give it a little more with the wrench just to be sure it wont work its way loose. ok last step. new oil. if u have a owners manual it should say how much to use. once u put that much in u still need to check the dip stick because its not a garentee that how much u need. ok oil level says full , plug is tight filter is tight. fire it up and watch ur oil gauge. it should come up within a few seconds. ten seconds running dry and u will burn ur bearings so whatch it. if no oil pressure shut it off in real cold weather it can take up to twenty seconds to prim, at most. ok u got good oil pressure let it run about a minute. shut it off, wait about a minute and check the dipstick again. it it was right at full before u started it it may be a little low because of the filter ,so add a little if needed. thats it ur done. but its also a good time to check or replace ur air filter to. but dont let any dirt get in there ether.

locate oil drain plug on oil pan,engine off. take out oil plug with wrench, drain oil into a big pan or similar. when oil is drained remove oil filter and put new one on, put some new oil on filter seal with finger then screw on to car as tight as you can get it by hand. do not use a fiter wrench to tighten filter only hand tight. use oil filter wrench to take off old oil filter. when filter is on put plug back in oil pan and tighten. then add your new oil to reccomended oil level.

if the owner is the one going to change the oil pan , then the owner should locate the oil pan .Prepare the the equipment going to be used in changing the oil pan. First drain the oil or the engine oil that is in the oil pan. In draining, the owner of the car should twist the drain plug until it loose that the oil will spill on a can or to where the owner will place the engine oil.The oil pan is connected to the engine with the bolts . The owner have to twist the bolts until the oil pan is being place out of the engine . then replace the oil pan .Then the owner have to place back the bolt using the bolts to connect the oil pan to the engine twist the bolts again until the new oil pan is connected to the engine.Close or twist the drain plug until engine oil will not spill , Then refill or place engine oil to the engine. If the owner cannot do it then the owner have to go to a car mechanic to do the task or the job.

If it IS Leaking from DRAIN PLUG and You Can Not RE-TAP New THREDS into it ( REPLACE the OIL PAN) I Have never RE-TAPED Drain Plug Threds Because I Prefer Original Threds, So Any Customer wiht This Problem, I Advised them to Replace the Whole OIL PAN.
This is What I Would do, The Oil Avalability Is CRUCIAL to The Engines Survival.

Changing oil is really easy and i do not know if you have done this before so i will walk you threw compleatly. step1 jack the vehicle up and support it with jackstands before you get underit.
Step 2. Get a good oil Drain pan
3. remove the plug on the bottom of the oil pan and drain the oil in to the drain Pan caution make sure engine is not hot as the oil will burn you severaly.
4. locat your oil filter and remove and alow do drain in drain pan
5 grab the new filter and put a light coat of oil on to the gasket and screw on to your engine as tight as you can by hand now grab the oil filter wrench and turn only 1/4 of a turn tighter.
6. install drain plug back into engine oil pan and tighten down with wrench.
7 fill engine with proper oil viscosity example 5w-30 and the proper amount both can be found in owners manual.
8. start engine and look for leaks if no leaks are presant take car of of jack stands and enjoy you Well done job
hope you find this usefull
