I doubt anyone thinks of the DRAIN PLUGS ( Dimple or Gold brand ) as an accessory or Farkle or Mod .....jmho, Mike :thumbup:

There is also another forum member who had the same plug snap in the same spot.
I did compare both dimple and gold plugs and the gold plug seems like a better quality product.
Just a note that the dealer installed the dimple plug during first oil change.
They claimed they did not over torqued the plug.
Also the member who had the same problem happen also claimed he didn't over torqued the plug.
that was me, my dimple plug broke in half right at the magnet the very first time I put it in and it WAS NOT over torqued.
I think some may be defective. VERY EXPENSIVE OIL CHANGE.
