What size is the oil drain plug for a 2008 Honda Pilot?

Question

Accepted Answer

The oil drain plug on a 2008 Honda Pilot is typically a 16mm hex from the manufacturer, but aftermarket parts may be 17mm, which is a more common size. To prevent rounding, you can use a box wrench, but avoid overtightening as there is a specific torque requirement of 29 lb-ft, with a tolerance of +/- 1 lb-ft. Always replace the crush washer when removing and replacing the drain plug to prevent oil leaks. Failure to tighten enough may lead to leaks, while overtightening can damage the drain plug or the aluminum oil pan.
