You need a 13mm square drive drain plug key or just use a 1/2" drive ratchet.

Wagoneers are so professional

You doing a change ? I am going to have a go in the summer along with the rest of the low mileage servicing.

Got one of these to fit to my diff, lock it right up.

Once again Xtreme Scoobies p*** me off, they were the last ones to change my diff oil a couple of years back but do you think i can get the filler plug undone, i've got the correct socket and a long torque wrench but it's so tight it's not turning the slightest cheers Xtreme for doing the plug up so f***** tight
