Universal answer : between 25 and 50Nm. Specific one : read the damn car specs.

Tighten until you hear a snap. A quarter turn before that was the correct tightness.

My last car was used. I went in to get the oil changed and found out the previous owner had JB welded the plug in place.

Too tight is too late to do anything about it.

In germany we call this "nach fest kommt ab".
aizikamus
Quarter turn more should do it.

I would just like to point out the gripping strength of that wrench. Like damn. Way to hold on
TwoBitGreaser
As tight as your little fingers can manage.
FrogBotherer
Tighten it up until the sump breaks, then back it off a quarter turn.
UrinalCarrier
Just weld everything together, no more loose bolts
thematman92
That's what my dad told me. He could fix anything. After he got a few practice runs in.

My girl.... new car plz because a new sump wont match me driving an old landrover with different colour doors she wont ride in....

Almost there...

Tight enough to seal the hole and no more. ✓ the torque specs when in doubt.
ImaSheepHurDur
Time to get out the Haynes Manual.

A quarter turn before it breaks. You're welcome.

When righty tighty becomes righty loosey you fucked up.
meMarbleMaker
Aah, touch too much. Wanna be 1/1000th of a turn less than that, any less it'll leak though so go steady yea.
semajretrac

Sumpthing looks broken here.

My dad doesn't think about small stuff, he's always engineering, he didn't understand when I pointed out we say, "bolth" and, "sompthing."
Draenic
...but I can't quite put my finger on it. Ah well, probably fine.
SpeedyCerviche
That was actually brilliant

Underrated comment right here...

Perfect response

Let me quote my ww2 mechanic grandfather as he was teaching me: Tight is tight, but tighter than that is broke all to hell.
Cattwalking
Mine said " you go a quarter turn before it breaks "
namAehT
Tighten till it breaks, back off a quarter turn

Wow, I didn't know they made mechanic grandfathers that long ago. But I sure do hope that robogramps wasn't talking about grandma...

She was known as "Vide Grips" in the old country.

Killed 82 Germans, worst mechanic the Wehrmacht ever had.

The trade I work in we always say. Tight is tight and stripped is fucked.

In germany we say "nach fest kommt ab", translates to after tight comes loose xD

goes from righty tighty to righty loosey
Sidewinder1018
Definitely cracked a dirt bike engine case at the drain plug doing this. Had to pull the engine and have it welded
thrashingcows
Righty tighty...righty loosely...:/ The phrase anyone who does wrenching fears.
Weedies617
Or on the reverse. Loosening some shit. It's tight.. It's tight.. It's tight. and now there's no resistance. Bing
lookingOknaked
The sinking feeling when it starts to get loose again. Fuck!
Ximinipot
You're..... you're not wrong.
Darksnider05
There's nothing like that feeling when it happens.
DetroMex
It's akin to sharting in a way.

In Germany we say: nach fest kommt ab. After tight (it) comes off
alphanius
Nach fest kommt lose eigentlich xD
alphanius
Zumindest kenne ich das so

Hmmm vielleicht regional unterschiedlich? Niederrhein hier. Google spuckt auf jeden Fall zu beidem ordentlich was aus.
