Was ready to do mine this last weekend until I found out it took a VERY special 16mm triple point security driver to get the drain plug out... had to order that from eBay so now will wait until this weekend to do.

Yep, you will need a tamper resistant triple square (12-point) to remove the drain plug and a 17mm Allen socket (for 5-speed) or a 10mm Allen socket (for 6-speed) to remove the inlet plug on the side of the trans-axle. I recommend using the Porsche oil, I have also used Royal Purple but the Porsche oil is much better.
