Does anybody know what kind/size tool it takes to remove the drain and fill plugs on the manual tranny? It is bigger than a half inch drive. (looks like the front diff fill plug but larger) |

Anyone? The plug is slightly bigger than a 5/8 allen key. Transfercase and diffs are done though...yeah!! I know the 5 speeds are rare, but somebody must have done this before |

i got the six speed manual and my drain bolt is a very LARGE female hex. i don't have enough miles yet but when its time i was going to fab up a bold that fits the hex then weld some sort of handle to it to get it off! |

For you manual tranny peeps.. It is a 17mm hex. The plug also has a magnet on it. I had some metal shavings clinging there. Hope that is normal.... Now I have synthetic lubes all around.(thanks JJ) |

What kind of synthetic lube goes into the '06 six speed tranny? Is it not synthetic from the factory?.I can't figure out what red line or Mobil 1 is correct. I only have 1300 miles, but want to change all fluids after break in (regardless of what DC says about this tranny NEVER needing a fluid change under normal conditions). Thanks.... Steve |
