#1: Help with Oil change on a 1.6 (TU5JP4)?? Author: 206Xt, Location: Costa RicaPosted: Thu Aug 23, 2012 6:23 pm ---- Hi guys,
I'm struggling a little with changing the oil on my Pug... I can't find where the drain plug is located!
I've seen lots of pics of other engines and none seem similar to mine... I only see a plug that seems to go out with an allen key (on the back left side of the oil pan - as seen from the front), but it has no head like to use a 21mm socket (as I've seen in this forum most of the other models have).
Can anyone help? Pics are very much appreciated.
Regards!!

Be easier to just swop the standard bung for the quick drain type, saves on drilling & no more tools needed to drain the oil

Yeah, it's exactly like that one. Thank you for your answers, I'll try to find the correct tool...
