12 ft. lbs isn't a lot of torque to begin with. So, if you think you got them more then hand tight with loc-tite. Think you will be ok. Did you use any rtv on the gaskets?

It's a steel bolt threading into aluminum hole. Don't think the issue is with the bolt, it's with the hole. If this is happening. The fix would be to heli-coil the hole.

Pic from the DIY thread.

I read the thread. Yeah, it says 12 ft.lbs. I see where it's a 4mm allen. Not a 4mm diameter bolt. Big difference between the 2.

All the bolts out? If so, put one back on each side. Just a couple of threads screwed in. When the pan pops loose. This keeps the pan in place and not making a mess of things.

My thinking on it. At 2,200 to 4,000 rpm. He should have about 50 ~ 60 psi. That maybe what is needed for the VVL and Varivalve timing to operate there. Not enough oil pressure and things get noisy....
