Make sure the drain plug washer is installed on the drain plug and tighten the drain plug to 14.5 ft/lbs (the same as the filter bolt). Use a new drain plug gasket (92065-097 GASKET, 12X22X2). Many people don't replace these every time, but they're cheap. Stock up. When you reuse the crush washer, you run the risk of oil seeping out around the already compressed crush washer. Why skimp on a $0.33 part (92065-097 from [http://ronayers.com/ ronayers.com])? Two alternatives are Hyundai part #21513-23001 or Nissan #11026-01M02.
