    Hi All,

    yesterday i replaced half my exaust with a £150 one from ebay. It works just fine though it too me the whole day.

    Anyway i wanted to change my oil and filter. Started on it today and stopped as the sump plug would not come off. Got the right tools etc and now i appear to have really blunted the damp screw.

    I guess i can go to a grage and they will be able to get it off somehow but i will need a replacement. I have looked at ebay but the ones i find seem to be for the 1.3 versions. Might i also need a new sump?

    Your thoughts are welcome

    Thank you mate i checked that thread but got to the copen part and thought that was the only thing. I have ordered it now from ebay.

    I guess i could hammer a smaller socket onto the sump and then do it that way. Will wait till the new one comes!

    couldn't get mine out either - bought the new official one from sg petch and had the garage swap it when doing an oil change for me.

    Decent quality sockets usually cater for chewed nuts to a certain extent as they drive on the flats. Give your snap on man a call......... ;)
