These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

6 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

Transmission filter retaining screws: 4.5 ft-lb. Transmission pan bolts: 7.3 ft-lb. Drain plug: 30 ft-lb. Fill plug: 59 ft-lb.

POST 4Original post

Many thanks, I must have an old manual as it only show to older type tipronic sump. Tag10

POST 5Original post

Looking a the technical article again the fill plug torque of 59 ft lbs (80 Nm) is for the older sump. On the post 2002 sump the drain and fill plugs are the same smaller size therefore require far less torque? tag10

POST 6Original post

You are correct, 2002 on the drain plug should be 16.2 ft.-lb.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
