Oil pan threads stripped?
Since owning this car, i've done most oil changes at home. The last two times I was lazy and took it to two different quick lube places.
I decided to do it again today and noticed the drain plug is harder to turn when you loosen it, and when u tighten it. Its nothing crazy, but usually these things spin by hand freely when you loosen the torque on them. I pulled it out a few times and I didnt notice any shavings like it was stripped. |

Toyota states 28ft/lbs torque. I haven't had a leak from the drain plug yet, and I changed the oil again last week. I used a tap and cleaned the threads up a little. Didn't see any shavings, but from now I guess I will just use my small 3/8" ratchet and forget my 1/2" ratchet
