Help Please, Tools Needed.
Hi,
I just purchased my 2003 Z06 and waiting for my shop manual
In the mean time, I wanted to replace my manual trans fluid and diff. fluid. Would one of you kind souls please tell me what size allen? I need to do the job(s), please
Thanks in advance,
Chris

3/8" for the tranny drain and fill plugs. There might be some crud build up in the fill plug that needs to be scraped out.
The diff drain and fill plugs take male hex (i.e. allen) sockets, but I can't remember right now (fat lot of help I am, huh!).
BTW, remember to add a bottle of GM limited slip additive to whatever fluid you fill with.
I'll try to remember to go find it tonight when I get home.
HTH, and have a good one,
Mike

Thanks Folks!
I got the trans, diiff, and oil changed today
I did not realize that there was a sensor in the trans fill plug
Thank you all so very much for your help. Now, I have to get the car started. This is sad, I bought this car three weeks ago and have yet to drive it
