Gonna change my oil next week and have seen different options for sizes. Some say 12m and others 14m.
Can someone tell me the OEM size please.

You will need a 15MM wrench/socket to remove it. The actual drain plug is a M12-1.75.

Hi there, looking for confirmation that the correct thread size for the plug is M12x1.75. I typically put ValvoMax plugs in to make life easier and their site is saying the thread is M14x1.5....

TIA!

Fumoto is saying it is the M12 - 1.75 . Summit Racing, Advance, and Autozone have replacement plugs that also state the same size.

If you look in the ValvoMax reviews, someone says that they have the wrong size listed for their application so it is possible they are wrong in this case too. Have not changed my oil yet so can't confirm.

I have a 2022MY with the 2.3 and this is what I fitted to mine a few months ago.

Much appreciated! I ended up buying both sizes and will return the M14 after I change the oil in a few weeks.
