Is there a problem if the oil pan drain plug doesn't seem right?

If there is no oil leakage, the problem is not significant. You can apply an appropriate amount of sealant around the screw. Automotive oil leakage mainly occurs in three areas: engine lubrication system oil leakage, oil pan gasket leakage, and valve cover leakage. It is recommended to promptly inspect and identify the leakage points. Below is relevant information about the oil pan drain plug: 1. Check the engine oil filter screw. Over-tightening during installation can easily cause thread stripping; you can directly replace the filter screw, but issues here are generally rare. 2. Inspect the drain plug screws, as both the engine and transmission have drain plugs. Due to frequent removal and installation, these screws are particularly prone to thread stripping.
