In the old days the steel drain plugs had a copper washer and didn't leak, even if you reused the old copper washer. Now adays they are one-use, especially the plastic ones. If you change your own oil, make sure and buy a new oil drain plug or at least the sealing washer or it might leak. It worked too good before, so they decided to change it. At least that's what I believe.
