A previous owner of my 2002 AMF tdi has seemingly fitted a non-metric magnetic sump plug. A 9/16" socket fits the head perfectly. The body of the plug is about the same size as that of replacements that I have ordered and were supplied as being correct for an AMF, but the thread is different and they won't screw in. I deduce that a new non-metric thread has been cut into the sump, but this seems an awful lot of trouble for somebody to have gone to for so little benefit. The arrangement works perfectly well for the moment but I wonder whether others have come across the phenomenon?
