Has anyone replaced their oil drain plug for an aftermarket option with a valve for easier DIY oil changes. And if so where did you purchase from

 

I just installed a Fumoto valve F103SX this past weekend on my 200t. Got it off Amazon.

 

what did you reference for proper fitment when buying? I have an is350. I’m not sure if it’s the same threads

 

Recently installed the , already used it once to let out some oil to add some additives.. so far so good.. abit worrying on whether the plastic clip will dislodge, but that is a safety fall-back. I got this model coz it claims to have a smaller profile. Installation was easy.

 

Fumoto's site will have a list of what is suitable.

I put one on each of our 3 cars about 3 years ago. Works great, no problem with the clip coming off or leakage.
Now, if Lexus hadn’t put the filter in such a wonky spot or angle, changing oil would be completely mess free.

 

thanks for the info! I’ll check it out
