Just to add to this guide. The tool you need to get to the three f*cking bolts is a 5mm ball headed hex. At least 100mm long and 3/8" drive. You'll struggle with a regular 5mm ball headed Allen key

I did manage with a regular ball headed allen key but i think i was just lucky. Did you get the sump off?

rich83:
Yes. Pita. Rounded one bolt nearly. Need to have the right tools

The good thing about these is you can use an allan or socket. Was the pipe clogged?

rich83:
You can only use a socket on some of them. The twat bolts need and Allen. The pick up was annoyingly clean.
