Impressed/Part number for tool???......

[phoenixv6quattro]

Hello Gents! Flushed my engine with Diesel today. Used a 50:50 (oil:diesel) ratio. Let her tick over for 15 mins with 2500rpm/idle intervals. Dumped the mixture, and a whole load of rubbish came out!! Now I do changes every 5k, but only had her for 10k and the previous owner('s) must have forgotton to do this. Filled her back up with some 5/40 fully synthetic started her up, and quite a few noises that were present before have gone! Very happy!
Would highly recommend this (my opinion only).

I have been on the phone all day, and havn't been able to obtain a part/tool number for the gearbox drain/refill plug. Its driving me crazy! Audi are not allowed to give it out (tried 7 dealerships..yeah I know I know should have given up after the second time....) and every other company either don't want to supply it or don't know???!!!!! Outrageous! So.....Does anyone know the tool/part number for this tool?? Found a VAG parts group that can supply VAG tools, but they need the number first! Any help would be HIGHLY appreciated.

Thanks in advance fellas!

is this not a 17mm hex?
if so use a wheel bolt (old one with some bar welded onto it works a charm for that kind of thing!)

Some of them are M16 spline XZN. Ebay will be your friend look for Audi gearbox plug.

Ones a 17mm hex, the other is a weird tool with a security pin.

I borrowed mine, but this is what you want:

Also, make sure the level plug will come out before you undo the drain!!!

Most good motor factors have them also, GSF or euro definately. I have my own non gen one to save me having to walk to the board.
