    Um, you’re comparing a drain plug concept for a 2.7L engine without a suction pipe to a 3L. Tombie was talking 2.7L engines

    What happened to your D3/D4 today?

    Indeed.

    I chose to run a 2.7 when I purchased my vehicle.

    If I had the 3.0 I’d be vacuuming the oil.

    I also have Stahlbus units on the Defender, Disco 2 and one coming for my motorbike - they just make life easier for conventional draining.

    I was investigating doing diffs and other fluids using the same.

    I have always been concerned they could get hit,particularly on the diffs of a vehicle such as Defender or D2.

    Ditto for the sump of some vehicles.

    I wouldn’t worry, if the diff hits it on a Defender there’s much bigger problems.

    On the D4 it’s well out of the way!
