The oil drain plug on a 2017 Subaru Outback requires a 17mm wrench or socket for a torque wrench. To avoid stripping the bolt, set the torque wrench to 25 ft-lbs when removing it. The thread size is M20-1.50, a common size for oil drain plugs. Plan to change the oil every 7,500 to 10,000 miles, as indicated by the oil life monitor in the vehicle.
