[QUOTE="Bn14475, post: 1223962, member: 88088"] Thank you everyone for your responses. The path I am taking right now is speaking with the dealer that I bought the bike from. I remember them confirming that they changed the oil while readying it for sale. I have read that the correct drain plug size for my 2008 is 17mm and the plug that is currently installed is 18mm. That would tell me that a larger size was installed. The more troubling thing is that the service department at the dealer should have realized this. They didn't install a crush washer when they changed the oil. Looks like they used a rubber gasket instead. I currently have a dialogue going right now with them to see if they will correct the situation for me. Hopefully they will take care of it. [/QUOTE]
