Hi Robie, Does your service garage replace the drain plug crush washer each time they change the oil? If not the one-time "crush" seal could be gone and the drain plug will leak. I keep a bag of oil drain plug washers in the glove box. The list vendors who sell oil filters also sell drain plug gaskets.(VolksCafe # N.013.814.9) Regards, John
