    You re-use the drain plug from your old plastic housing - it fits & works perfectly.

    Fixing to swap to the metal housing at 5k miles.
    Still planning on using my 2 free oil changes, think the dealer will even notice that I swapped the housing?

    what I was thinking. Figured I’d just play dumb if they ask any questions.

    Happened to me today. Exactly as you said and even after I cracked it manually the impact wrench took forever to get the plastic one off. They must hire gorillas at the Toyota dealers because holy shit!

    I got one at Autozone from Dorman but that isn’t all that great either. Some very brittle cast metal, not aluminum.

    The first one I got was cracked at the drain area. Someone must have returned it and I got stuck with it so a return trip to autozone was in order. They swapped it out but holy crap. It was the oil change from hell!
