New unused Dimple Magnetic Sump Plug - M14x1.5x16 - The worlds most powerful

**OnetoothCracker** · 25-05-2021, 11:05 AM

I ordered this from the UK for the EA888 Gen 3 in my Skoda Superb Sportline (206kw) but unfortunately it doesn't fit.
Cost me A$60 inc shipping ex UK - my loss your gain asking $40.

I contacted the UK supplier Motosport Developments who replied as below

We unfortunately don't have a list of exact vehicles these fit, we list for the following:
Audi (All Petrol Engines 2010-Present Diesel TDI) I INCORRECTLY ASSUMED THIS INCLUDED EA888 Gen 3
Fiat 500 Cinquecento
Honda (All Models)
Hyundai/ Kia (All Models)
Mitsubishi (Most Models and Years)
VW (Most Models)

The Gen 3 EA888 uses a plastic sump plug with a weird thread and locking mechanism. It also requires a special tool to remove/replace it.

These Dimple sump plugs are very nice quality (I had one myself on my Subaru) but they are designed for metal sumps with a traditional thread-in sump plug.

So this should suit Mk5 and Mk6 era VW's, but not the 2013> MQB chassis cars.

Thanks for clarifying what this should suit Lucas, I was aware of the plastic sump plug in my car when I ordered it, I got misled by the Audi info on the website.
