Oil Pan Drain Plug
An oil pan drain plug is exactly what it sounds like. It plugs your oil pan. You’ll often interact with it whenever you need to change your oil, and it prevents any leaks when you’re driving. Although small, this piece of your vehicle can make or break your engine. If not correctly installed, you’ll experience a leak, causing your oil levels to lower. Without enough oil, your engine will operate with little to no lubrication, which can cause excessive wear and even engine failure. This may seem fatalistic, but it goes to show how important it is to screw it on carefully and ensure it is in good condition whenever you change your oil.
If you notice your oil pan drain plug is responsible for a leak, Advance Auto Parts can help. We sell oil pan drain plugs for as little as $2, although the price may vary depending on the type of drain plug and what vehicles it suits. Head to a location near you if you have questions or order online!

Although oil pan drain plugs do not need frequent replacement, you should still inspect them at every oil change. If you notice any damage or wear, or if the threads are stripped, it's time to replace the plug to ensure a proper seal. If you notice a leak and find that the drain plug is damaged, you can replace the plug to see if it is the source of your leak.
