    Oil drain problems!

    can anyone help with the size of the Torx bit required for the sump plug? Could it be a T45?

    Has anyone drained the oil via the dipstick tube using a pump?

    Did a quick search and it looks like it is a T45. VAUXHALL ZAFIRA VECTRA OMEGA MERIVA SUMP OIL DRAIN PLUG 45 TORX 90502556 / 04572 | eBay

    Draining through the sump plug is always better than pumping it out. I never tried it before but draining through the sump hole seems so much easier. Gravity is free and quick.
