Does anyone have the special Audi Drain plug tool?

[Chard]

planning on flushing/refilling the front and rear diff oil but found out that i'm going to need the oh so special Audi drain plug tool. i figured i'd see if i could borrow one before kicking down $30+ for this thing.

isn't it a just an oversized torx screw??

The 10mm Allen or the Pump you need to fill the trans and diff afterwards? I have both.

can i borrow? i'll prob need both.

from what i read, it's a torx bit but there's a hole in the middle.

It's just a 10mm allen for my car. Not sure if the A4 is any different.

I dunno, this link and others said that there is a special tool to get the front tranny drain plug off.

Yes the A4 is different. I thought it was a triple square like the one for the fuel filter bracket but bigger.

Oh well, I have the pump to refill the trans if you still need that. I don't have the security torx or the 17mm allen needed.
