  • Drain Plug size for manual gearbox? M18 or M20

    Hey guys,
    My 5-speed manual’s been leaking gearbox oil for a while now — probably the washer, but I want to replace the plug too. I’ve always reused the original one.

    Does anyone know for sure if the plug size is?

    M18 x 1.5
    M20 x 1.5

    If in doubt, I can just buy both, it's going to be one of them. Interestingly, my huge workshop manual doesn't specify this either.

    Cheers!

    Update:

    I found an older thread saying the part could be the "Doorman 090-075 bolt" which is a M14 x 1.5 part which makes sense as that matches the sump plug so it's going to be M14. Dunno why I was thinking the other sizes.
