Its a different size plug so it won't be the same washer.

Aren't the two on the pan the same, and the oil tank is a different size one? That's how it was on the .1 version I thought.

on .2 2 on the pan are same size washer...oil tank is a different washer.

Confirmed that they are 100% not the same size. The rear washer has a 20mm OD 16mm ID x 1.25mm thick. Anyone have access to what the part number would be for the rear most drain plug and washer? BTW I let the rear drain over night and pulled ALMOST another Quart of oil out of the crank case!

This kit (when specified for 2018-2019) comes with the correct plugs and washers - they should know the numbers:

Yes found that and ordered. I cannot believe how much more oil drains out when removing the rear plug.

These are the proper tools to get all torques perfect










This is what came out over night from the rear plug

Nice job! I have a Stahlwille torque wrench and they make Ring insert attachments with various hex sizes that I fit over a stubby Allen wrench to set torque on the rear plug.

Does the dealer remove the rear plug too when you have them do the service? I am basically having the dealer do it once a year so I can get the stamp in the book and then once on my own. That should make it a change every 3500 mi or so. Excessive but I don't want to go 7000 miles either.

Not sure - never had them do it. My guess is they don’t unless you specifically request it of a technician who is sympathetic to our OCD

Note that you need to keep those offset extensions at 90 degrees relative to the torque wrench, otherwise you will apply more torque than the wrench indicates. You may know this but your pics show them at an incorrect position for applying the torque spec, so FYI for any looking to do something similar.

That wrench in the pic is just removing the plug. Good tip though. I didn’t know that and glad to. I’m waiting on my crush washers so nothing torqued yet.

What grade of oil did you use?

What does one call that extension that goes on the torque drive end to mate with the hex bit? Doing an internet search and not finding it.

You don’t need an adapter if you buy a Stahlwille German torque wrench that lets you plug in a huge variety of fittings including normal ratchets of various sizes or ring hex tools that fit over an Allen wrench that is inserted in the plug. No need to worry about inaccurate measurements from weird angles or distorted lengths of the lever arm.

Here is one:

Here is an example of a ring insert for the torque wrench:

Or an insert ratchet:

Stahwille stuff is pricey, but lasts forever and you don’t have to set to zero when storing. Can find them cheaper in germany at various online discount places or German eBay (pretty safe to buy used, as they tend to hold their calibration very well)
