Hello folks,
I just did my second oil change on my 2010 challenger 210SE (I have had it for 2 seasons now). This time, I decided to change the inner O ring on the oil filter cap and have been hesitant previously due to the retaining nut on the bottom of the screw being so hard to remove in order for me to get the screw off the cap and replace the O ring. I finally removed the retaining nut this time and noticed it had Loctite on it (sure did its job). I can't think of a good reason for Loctite to be on this screw, though the schematic seems to call for it. Anyone follow this procedure with the Loctite on this screw? I didn't, what would happen if I don't re-apply the Loctite?
