What to do if you over tighten the cap nuts on the oil drain plate-- it's easier to do than you may think. Be careful!

  • Cool vid. I'm a machinist- the way we normally keep chips out is to cover the drill with anti seize and clean the drill after small progress. Works wonders

  • Great video. I encountered the same problem today so it's nice to see how to do it.

  • Guys, these videos are simply wonderful and I want to thank you for them. Not only does it show potential customers how to fix their own problems, it shows that the company knows what they are talking about with their products.

    I'm new to VW restoration even though I've been around them a lot of my life. I've learned my lesson on who to buy from - I really like your company. There are a few others that are good as well but I have Airheads in the top 5.

  • A glob of grease over the stud hole on the inside of the case will prevent stray chips. Drill and tap. Install the replacement stud just until it's level with the inside of the case, then draw the grease back toward the center hole with a paper-towel-wrapped or rag-wrapped popsicle stick.
