What size drive does this tool require?

This tool requires a 17mm drive to operate.

Which vehicle makes is this compatible with?

It is designed for Ford, Citroen, and Peugeot models that utilize plastic sump plugs.

Does this replace the need for a torque wrench?

Troubleshooting

Check that the tool is fully seated; apply steady, even pressure rather than sudden force to avoid cracking the plastic.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Prevents damage to soft plastic sump plugs
  • Essential for specific Ford and PSA engines
  • Fits standard 17mm drive tools
  • Durable construction for long-term use
  • EU Registered Design for proven reliability

Cons

  • Not compatible with standard metal drain plugs
  • Limited to specific vehicle makes
  • Requires manual torque control to avoid snapping plug heads

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To use the tool, attach a standard 17mm socket or wrench to the drive end. Ensure the engine is cool before attempting removal to prevent the plastic plug from becoming brittle due to excessive heat. Always clean the area around the drain plug before insertion to ensure the tool seats fully into the plug slots. After use, wipe the tool clean of residual oil and store it in a dry, organized toolbox to prevent grit accumulation in the drive mechanism. It is compatible with a wide range of Ford, Citroen, and Peugeot models that utilize the manufacturer-specific plastic sump plug design.
