Hopefully yours doesn't leak... Woke up one morning to oil all over my garage, the valve was closed but I guess it failed. Replaced it with the traditional bolt and washer, never had a problem since. Just get one of those magnetic oil change tools to take the drain bolt off.
Yeah, mine started leaking after I hit it with something on the road, unfortunate placement of the drain bolt on my civic. Idea is cool I agree, but it introduces more ways for a fail.
22k miles so far... knocks on wood
