Autozone guy told me they were the same. It worked for the top plug but the drain plus doesnt want to hold it in place enough to budge the drain plug loose. I just shot the plug and area with liquid wrench. Maybe that will help.

I will change the gear oil. If that doesnt do it I will have to drive to the dealer and let them tell me what it is. I cant afford to keep guessing and replacing parts on the car till I find the real issue.
