I notice oil was coming out under my car. So i climb under and notice that it was leaking from the oil pan drain plug. So i went out and brought new washer and change it. After a day, it's still leaking from the same place (actually more then before now). What did i do wrong? Does anyone know how to stop the leak or do i have to bring it to the dealer for them to take a look? Thanks...
How can i stop oil leak from the oil pan drain plug?

A drain plug is a pretty simple device. If you replaced the crush washer and tightened it down and it still leaks, I'd say its time to visit the dealer.
Are you certain its leaking out the drain plug hole? Maybe its coming from the oil filter and running down to drip from the drain plug.
Sounds to me almost as though you had your oil changed at a quickie lube place and they put the wrong plug back in.
