sump guard screw size? by westo123 on Mon Sep 28, 2009 6:32 pm
Does anyone know what type/size the screws holding the sump guard (bash plate) on are?
They look like torc but the t40 I tried did not fit.
I need to get them off for an oil change
It's a 2.0 swb sport.
It was once said that the Devil would never dare to cross the River Tamar into Cornwall for fear of ending up as a filling in a Cornish Pasty.

T50 is the one you want.

I found the oil hit the bash plate on the 20l sport and used a funnel but on the 2.8 it clears it.

I use this now anyway to save accidents.
