Post subject:  CRD Engine Oil pan drain plug thread size

I changed my oil yesterday and with all of the problems reported on stuck CRD Engine Oil Pan drain plugs, I took the time to use my machinist tools to determine the correct size. It looked close to 16mm but when I checked for both 1.25mm and 1.5mm pitch, the gauge would not fit, then I tried the 18TPI and it fit like a dream. Next I used a micrometer to check the diameter and it was 0.625 = 5/8".

CRD Engine Oil Pan Drain Plug Size is: 5/8" X 18 TPI
