Here ya go.....

It's a 19mm male end (90012402001). I think it was less than $10 at the dealer.

My shop uses the method limitedslip described. Used the torque extender and it worked great. Need to replace the fill with s make end.

Has anyone had a hard time getting the top fill plug out? I ordered the big allen wrench from Amazon and that plug is on there TIGHT. I was leaning on the wrench so hard it was about to start bending and the plug didn't come loose. I might have to get the car on a lift.

try heating it and pb blaster or similar

Thanks, a bit worried since the torque spec is 22 pounds. Will try PB blaster.

Mine was an SOB to get out.

Super tight? I might have to get it on a lift and use a 10 hex bit on a breaker bar, ugh.

I used a 10mm hex bit, a 10mm / 3/8" torque extender, on a long ratchet, total leverage about 18"

I'm guessing you had the car on a lift. I didn't have close to that much room with my car jacked up as high as it would go.

If it DOES strip, you can try a chisel to impact it enough to make it loose, If that does not work, take a die grinder with a carbide bit and grind the top of the plug down until it's very close to the surface of the transmission, then use a chisel to knock it so it starts to unscrew. I have had to do this a few times now, especially on older cars where the previous mechanic has partially stripped the plug and then over tightened it on installation.

ALWAYS remove the filler plug before draining the transmission so you know you can fill it up again. Been there, done that on my first 911 over 20 years ago.

Cheers,

Mike

Thanks, I stopped after I couldn't get the fill plug out. Will try again on a lift and try your chisel trick. Hopefully I don't have to go down that path.

just had back end up on jackpoints.i was doing this on my back. not fun. need to fill with car level, more not fun.

I pay shop to do tranny and oil changes now on my GT3 when they do nut/bolt inspections. Its an hour or two shop labor well spent.

The fill bolt does not need to be that tight, maybe 20 ft lbs? For some reason some crank it way too tight.

Remember if you do use the chisel, it will mar the plug, so prepare to replace it - they are not expensive but only available from Porsche - I get them from Sunset.

Will order one in case, always good to have spares. Anyone have the part number for the aluminum crush washer or does it come with a new plug?
