I have posted previously about a service guy [not technician] at a Sydney dealership [before I bought the Tig.] who stripped the thread of the Haldex filler plug in the aluminium housing. It was very difficult to remove because of the necked down recess under the head of the plug that left some housing matl. unstripped. IMO it's very important to take your time, think about the matl that you are working with & use a torque wrench if possible.
Thanks - all very simple and easy so far mainly because of the excellent how-to internet info and videos available on YouTube.

Yes you need to be very careful with all such oil fill&drain bolts and use new washers where possible. Also use small tools and not ones that give lots of leverage or keep your hand close to the bolt being tightened.
