    for anyone interested - I have found that the best 17mm socket tool can be made by grinding the rounded base off of a standard VW wheel bolt, and cut off the thread. The hex section is just the right length to go the full depth of a 1/2" 17mm socket and hte full depth of the plug.

    Hi everyone

    i would like to change my gearbox oil on
    polo 1.9 SDI 2006. manual ofc
    does someone have some instructions or pics where are the drain and fill screws?
    how to make sure all of the old oil drains?

    is there any magnet that collects the remains from the gear wear, if so is it possible to clean that without taking the gearbox down?

    some pics of gearbox if it helps

    Do you need to replace the gaskets on the sump plugs or do the original ones seal up fine again?

    Always replace the washer on the drain plug, it's just a cheap insurance to eliminate the oil leak from the d.plug.
