Aye Steve, Mark and all...

That s why I asked as I wanted to make sure I had the correct tool, and that the filler plug came out before draining the oil !!

E D I T = btw, my 1.9 DG has a DK box bolted on, I understand these are good boxes and I am told were used on some of the Porsche's.

Cheers folks :)
