was8v Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 Hi all, What tool do I need to remove the gearbox and diff drain / fill plugs? I remember on my TT I had to use a large bolt with 2 nuts locked off. I'd like to have everything ready this time to save scrounging round for bits! Thanks.

M13KYF Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 its quite considered by a few here not to drain the gearbox oil and just leave alone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

was8v Posted April 22, 2010 Author Share Posted April 22, 2010 its quite considered by a few here not to drain the gearbox oil and just leave alone My car has 52k miles and the box is a little slow and slightly noisy changing gear on cold mornings. On previous (FWD) cars the shift has improved by topping up the level. I'd thought I'd do it properly on the 350 and change the lot out. I was under the impression that Gearbox and Diff oils should be changed as part of a P3 service (which my car is due). 10mm Hex Thanks I already have a 10mm hex key Audi use something enormous for their plugs..
