take a screw driver and poke a hole in it, and just use your strrenth to turn it loose. There's too much pressure in it, release it by poking a hole and turn it. Because the same thing happen to me too. took me about 2 hours.

yeah just did my first oil change on my '09 LB - it was on too tight to get off by hand so I used the screwdriver method to get it off - works but sure is messy. Future changes will be easy though
