| Post subject: | Suzuki jimny gearbox drain plug |
Hey guys, Partly rounded off my jimny gearbox drain plug last weekend trying to get the bugger off for a much needed oil change. Shifting has gotten a bit stiff over the past few weeks and I suspect there is water in it. I'm going to have to take to it with a cold chisel so I'm going to need a replacement. Suzuki does not have any in stock within Australia and they Are on back order from overseas and could take up to a month. My jimny is my daily so I need to take care of this ASAP. Does anyone know of where I could find a replacement aftermarket plug? |

Take it to a Fastener place. Perhaps they have a bolt or large 'grub screw' that could suffice for the moment. |

buy a 10mm square drain plug socket & go to a self serve wreckers & pull one out of another zook or go to a suzuki wrecking yard & buy one? |

Is the drain plug on the VVT model the same as the non-VVT one? http://www.suzistore.com.au/onlinestore/four-wheel-drives/jimny/jimny-sn413-m13a/transmission1263922497/PLUG-DRAIN-TRANSFER---GEARBOX---DIFF-1870-detail.html |

Thanks for the replies, I should have mentioned that I really did not want a second hand one but a visit to a bolt shop might be on the money. |

2nd hand one would get you out of trouble until a new one rocked up. if you're going to get one from a bolt shop make sure it's got a magnet in it. |
